Guys, please forgive a noob for asking what may have already have been answered. I have a 1998 XJR and want to do a trans fluid flush and refill. I take it I need a fluid change, with new pan gasket, bolt and copper washer, filter, and solenoids too? Im at 74k miles. Can someone please tell me what youd recommend I change at this point, and please point me towards the best fluid and other parts and prices?

I replaced the solenoids on my car a few weeks ago, what a difference. The other thing you want to change is the connector for the plug in the transmission. I purchased the pan gasket & plug from the local Mercedes dealer for $45.00. The solenoids are not cheap but make a huge difference in the shift quality. Here is a link on the installation.

I was shocked at how much cheaper the parts were from Mercedes, they are half the price I would pay as a dealer employee.
