    Transmission issue on B200

    Given its history and ongoing issues, I would really advice you start considering other, more reliable vehicles instead of investing further in this one.

    Has anyone else tried DIY maintenance for Mercedes B-Class?

    Haha...You've got a great approach to cutting maintenance costs, I also try to save by sourcing parts online and checking things like wear and fluid levels myself before spending on repairs.

    You've done an impressive amount of maintenance on your B250e, and it's great to hear about the improvements from the Michelin tires and fluid checks; I hope you can resolve that HV battery error soon..

    Has anyone else tried DIY maintenance for Mercedes B-Class?

    It's interesting how Tesla managed moisture differently across models; replacing the desiccant in the B250e seems important for battery health, especially given Mercedes' warranty policies.

    Has anyone else tried DIY maintenance for Mercedes B-Class?

    Has anyone else tackled this yearly maintenance themselves? A dealer quoted me $350 for the service, but the part alone is only $45.

That might work well for your needs
