Your Mercedes-Benz transmission is a collection of parts that must each be functionally sound for the gearbox to do its job. It follows then, logically, that when attending to a particular transmission issue, the strength of the weakest part determines the end quality of the system. For this reason, ECS offers several complete Transmission Service Kits for your Mercedes. Choose from premium ECS-assembled and genuine OEM packages - each including Automatic Transmission Fluid, Filter, Oil Pan Drain Plug and Sealing Washer, Dipstick Tube Cap Lock Pin, and Pan Gasket.

With cars and engines routinely asked to run long past 100,000 miles, there's no money to be saved by putting off regular maintenance.

ECS-assembled and genuine OEM Porsche Ignition Service Kits include 4 spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, and plug wires, maintaining adequate spark energy for maximum engine performance and efficiency.

Light on weight. Long on looks. The new ECS Tuning Engineered 2-Piece front brake rotors combine the natural advantages of a cast iron braking surface with the weight savings and rapid heat dissipation of an aluminum hat. Cast iron-gray and durable matte black hats create an eye-catching contrast that accents painted calipers behind open-faced alloy wheels. These beauties have all the extras: black anodized hats, cross-drilled and slotted brake faces, and unlike OEM, directionally vaned rotors for better cooling and heat dissipation over stock.

Most aftermarket boost gauges are clearly poorly designed add-ons. The dial numbers and lighting don't match the factory gauges, and most utilize a mounting system that plainly looks out of place. We think your boost gauge should be easy to see, & match the design of your interior. That's why we've developed a tasteful, center-vent mounted boost gauge kit. The gauge design blends with other dash gauges to give it a classy, factory-installed look. We've even prepared a detailed photo tutorial outlining the installation, so the fun can start as soon as you open the box.
