Change oil (every10K) & trans fluid (every 30K) if you are keeping the car.!
Oh boy. Yeah, it is a rougher motor overall than any Benz I've ever owned. The m111 was smoother. So, you are saying the balance shaft wear issues can be put to rest with 10k oil changes? I am doing mine at 7500. I will bump trans up to 30 from 39.
