Good advise. I have time to look into the trans service with 35,000 on the clock.
You mentioned the oil sump size. We've had the 430
for two days now and I keep forgetting it has an
eight and a half quart oil capacity. I'm too used to
those five quart changes.
My oil has been changed at MB at 10K , 20K and 30K,
and man is it black at 35K. With Valvoline 5w-40.
I plan on getting an oil analysis done.
A 6,000 dollar transmission rebuild/changeout would
sure bring a man down.
Did MB give a warranty with the tranny rebuild?
Thanks
