Hello,
I have a 2002 Mercedes C230,kompressor, 2 door hatchback.
Accidently I run over a speed bump in a parking lot and puncture the transmission oil pan. I was fortunate to recover most of the fluid by placing a new oil pan under.
Question is: If this fluid has stayed more then 24 hours in a pan,covered by a plastic bag will be OK to reuse it?
I'm asking because it seems that it is a syntetic fluid and MB mentioned that the transmission fluid shouldn't be change at all.
The car has 34kmiles on board.

MB dropped that "lifetime" fill garbage about 4 years ago. USE new fluid & service the trans! Replace the filter as well.
