From the service histories it looks like they have not been serviced so far ... they seem to be viewed by Mercedes in the UK as sealed for life?

Mercedes Benz USA considers these transmissions "sealed for life", too, and fluid replacement is considered "unnecessary".
Many technicians, like Joe P, who work on these cars say it's a mistake, and fluid replacement should be done at 60,000 miles intervals.
