That’s what I did, went to the stealership as suggested plus get the wheel aligned as well. Then came the report card: need 30K service (plug change), flex disc cracked etc, etc Need info on good, honest fair pricing indy around Orange County, CA

I am planning to find a good indy this weekend to change diff gear oil (check leak), check flex disc (change if necessary), change sparkplug and maybe some other important stuff…Any suggestions are welcome
Good!! The dealership is "ok" for transmission fluid changes if they have people trained to service your car.

Be careful with flex discs especially on an E class. I have heard of 124's deploying airbags over broken flex discs.
