Watch out buying oil from walmart. Be sure to check the seals on all the bottles. Zipper seals on the small bottles and foil seals beneath the cap on the big bottles.

Have you added any inline filters or transmission coolers? How often are you changing the ATF and Filter in the pan? I have typically done changes every 15k on my jeeps and 25k on just about everything else. I have heard that the mercedes trans will last a long time if you change it often. but how often is often?
