I have a 1997 C 280. The transmission seal or gasket appears to be leaking. Can I add transmission fluid to the system? If so where is the fluid added. The manul says it is a closed system and can only be accessed by a mechanic.
Optional Information: 1997 Mercedes-Benz C280 8 cylinder Already Tried: Purchased some transmission fluid
Hi, Oil can only be added via the dip stick tube at the rear of the engine. The only problem is that you cannot recheck the level as you will need a workshop dip stick as the car has an empty tube.
