Hello, my "new" '06 SLK 350 required trans repair, and the "rebuild" required 6qts of new ATF. Having no knowledge of any previous trans fluid replacement, my question is this; the new "fluid" has a different "part #" than that listed in the MB Service Products booklet, NEW = 001-989-68-03-13 GEAR OIL , OLD = 001-989-45-03-10 Automatic Transmission Fluid .
I can only assume there is no compatibility issue, but does this mean I can use a different MB Recommended fluid at a later date? MB has expanded their recommended list to include several "new" fluids; http://bevo.mercedes-benz.com/bevolisten/236.12_en.html .
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
