While many MB owners change the power steering fluid periodically, it never appears on any actual maintenance schedule, either by mileage or time.

The radiator fluid and brake fluid changes don't appear on the 7.5k, 15k, or 30k service, either. They are not maintenance items that are changed at mileage intervals.

Rather, they are changed in time intervals:

--- Brake fluid is to be replaced every 2 years.
--- Radiator fluid is to be replaced every 3 years.
