Hi Matty, theres a great "How To" guide by Ollly on this forum, and also Olly gives pricing as to how much it costs.

Hope this helps

Hi Matty

I am getting my ATF fluid changed on Friday at ProTech in newbury, they quote £174, Olly quotes £175 so this seems a representative price from an independent for a C32 ATF change.
I looked at Olly's how to but without STAR, a ramp and the dipstick it seems too much hassle.

Cheers

Oh and I think general view is to change the ATF every 40,000.

Why did they need to test drive it after an ATF change ?

Olly didn't need to test drive mine after he did it ....

I had my C270 done at Class Cars, Wingham last year for about £150 including the filter, but from the invoice they only used about 4 litres of fluid - which means they drained the box but not the torque converter. Car had done 70K without fluid change, had it done as a precaution, box was smoother after the change.

Hi
I had mine done on the E270 CDI 6 weeks ago at Mercedes Benz of Leicester for £170 at 80,000miles.
