The ATF service is a funny one.Correct, and more crucially, if your car is automatic then it will need to have the ATF changed next year - and this will be pricey unless you have a service plan.
I have had it done on the Mrs' SLK but have never bothered previously and did need a new box on my S class while it was under warranty thankfully.
However, there is a dealer who advertises on here and seems to sell exclusively diesel, auto MB from around 5 to 10 years old. I don't often see ATF services documented on the history that he provides for each car. The guy has a great reputation on here so I have to assume that very few cars that he sells suffer from auto gearbox failure post sale.
