Mercedes-Benz S 550 Automatic vs Manual Transmission

Automatic and manual transmission will commonly require recognizable fluids. Automatic transmission fluids are mostly thinner and are commonly red or green in color. Manual transmission fluid or gear oil is thicker due to additives and divergent compounds necessary to lubricate the gearbox and divergent components. Manual transmissions have a higher friction environment due to the way gears are changed, thus the lubricant is recognizable.

Not only are the fluids different between manual and automatic transmissions but the level of heat the fluids experience is very different. Automatic transmissions generate a lot more heat and thus the fluid in your transmission must be changed more typically. If you don't change your Mercedes-Benz S 550 transmission fluid, your transmission will have broken metal shavings and back-up corrosive material spread throughout the vital components of your Mercedes-Benz S 550. You should typically check the fluid levels between your fluid and transmission flush service intervals. In many cases, manual transmissions don't come equipped with a dipstick to check your fluid levels, so it can be immensely laborious to do. Call or visit Mercedes-Benz of Chesterfield for more information if your transmission doesn't contain a dipstick.
