Mercedes C300 W205 722.9 Transmission Oil Change DIY!

[@mohmmedshareef8862]

Loved the video, it’s real educational and you kept in lessons learned too.

[@lundywang2002]

Im going to do my glk350 in the coming days. Your video is very informative. Thanks!!😊

I don't want to be too critical, because all-in-all it was a decent video. but... you missed some important steps and a couple of errors. As noted in earlier the 6 torx bolts are E10 not E11. I suspect E11 will work because of the torx pattern & low torque required, but use E10. I may have missed it, but I saw nothing on the torque converter and the fluid in it. Some of the 722.9's have access to the torque converter and some don't. It is an access port (w/black rubber cover) just in front of the oil pan you were working on. There is a process for that which involves leaving the car in neutral and turning the crank to find the drain for the torque converter. The 6 torx bolts due have a torque based installation it is 4 newton-meters (which is just past finger tight) plus 180 degree turn. They are stretch bolts and too much tightening will snap them. Also, while running once the tranny is above 35 celcius (on your way up to the 45 celcius fully warm operating temperature) you should get in the car foot on the brake and cycle through the gears P-N-R-D1-D2 and back a couple of times. For the pump I found a $50 one that worked great on Amazon (LainKeen). Without a lift this job can be quite messy.

Awesome video! Do you have any videos for the coolant change? Thanks

[@TomHargrove-t2t]

You also need front tires and an alignment. Inside edge was very worn on inside of passenger side

How many miles did the Mercedes have?

[@Lesnafe]

Was the experience good?

[@DriftMagic]

Very good experience!

[@debrafeldman-w7i]

Want to know where you got the kit? I have a 2018 c 300 and it needs the transmission fluid replaced.

[@DriftMagic]

Fcpeuro!

[@undeada-man1920]

I have that oil pump but not the fitting for the transmission or the thicker clear tube you attached to it. Where did you get those?

[@DriftMagic]

Oh, I had my own transmission oil manual pump and it came with it

[@scottnewlin1]

Well done! Thanks

[@RoelVillanueva-gc7xp]

How many miles on your car ? Awesome video

[@antoinebou-yazbek5434]

Great video thanks

[@prabhsingh3689]

Hi mate do you recommend that we can use aftermarket fluid in Mercedes

[@DriftMagic]

I’m sure it will be fine but for something that you will leave in your car for 60,000 miles it might be worth it!

​My c180 loses power on acceleration and sometimes it's very slow uphills. it seems to struggle on changing gears Gear 3 to 4 and 4 to 5 What it can be the problem Sir ​@@DriftMagic

[@prabhsingh3689]

Change the transmission fluid and filter ​@@abukarhassan7040

[@DriftMagic]

Possibly, I had an issue with bad acceleration which felt like gears mis-shifting but it ended up being crank angle sensor

[@abukarhassan7040]

@@DriftMagic I for get to Tel you I'm driving this car about 3 years and I use to do service by dealership but I never did gearbox service and the car meilage is 145,000 kilometre so do you think it's possible the gearbox needs service

[@oscariglesias9004]

NOT a flush. Just an oil change. Wrong title.

[@bikeracer2344]

Whoa

[@Toyotatech86]

The bolts are all e10’s, get a flat head and pop the level plug completely into the pan so you can get most the fluid out. Also you waisted a shit ton of fluid.

[@DriftMagic]

The fluid was put into a clean bucket and then sifted before putting it back into the container. So no, not really.

[@Toyotatech86]

@ you mixed clean fluid with dirty fluid. It’s dirty now. “Sifting” it isn’t gonna do anything. So yes really. Specially if the old fluid was so contaminated it made your transmission shift funny.

[@DriftMagic]

@Toyotatech86 it wasn’t the oil to begin with at all. It was the crank angle sensor that was going out. Replaced that and issues went away.

[@DriftMagic]

@Toyotatech86 also, luckily I can afford to waste a quart of oil in the process.

[@Toyotatech86]

@ lol but can’t afford to take your Benz to an actual Benz tech.
