How often should the transmission fluid be changed in a Mercedes-Benz GLA?
1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz GLA requires transmission fluid replacement every 65,000 kilometers or approximately 7 to 8 months. Additional knowledge about transmission fluid: 1. Transmission fluid is essentially a type of hydraulic oil that exists in various components of the transmission. It performs critical functions such as power transmission, lubrication, anti-wear, and cooling. In terms of its functional importance, transmission fluid is equally as vital as engine oil. 2. Before changing the transmission fluid in a Mercedes-Benz GLA, the old fluid should be drained first by loosening the drain plug at the bottom. 3. When replacing the transmission fluid in a Mercedes-Benz GLA, it's not just the fluid that needs to be changed; two other components require replacement and maintenance. One is the transmission fluid filter, which functions similarly to an oil filter by removing impurities from the lubricating fluid. The other is cleaning the transmission fluid pan.
