Mercedes GL/GLS test drives

I guess for $80 I could chance used on the trailer towing control module:

You are also due for a transmission service.

I probably should've ordered the filter(s) with the wiring harnesses. I'm a little confused by the MB listings of a pan and gear oil filter - RockAuto pics look like there's 2 filters that might be integral with the pan?

Appears to be much cheaper here than on RockAuto and appears to include both filters:

Yes I think it's the pan and the assorted stuff but the filters are integral.

You could call the dealer and ask if that pan includes the gasket, bolts, overflow tube, whatever.

I don't know that I understand what every piece is for that Vaico kit on FCP.

For fluid it needs to meet 236.17.

I don't remember if I posted this. Info about installing the factory hitch stuff.
