To drain TC easiest option is to do drop the sump & replace filter, refill with same amount of oil. Then disconnect the line from oil cooler to gearbox and set up to catch the oil from the cooler. start the car and stop after 500ml of oil comes out (best done with2 people). Top up via dipstick tube 1/2 L then repeat until you get nice red ATF through. Once complete reattach oil cooler line and check level/ adjust as required.

And while dropping the sump, check/change the electrical connector bushing; it's prone to leaking o rings and can lead to oil damage of the TCU.

236.14

so is that a yes to the mpm mb7 oil

 

[Gazwould]

Not familiar with that , my recommendation would be .

 

[pgh13]

I'd say not; that fluid is 236.15, blue fluid which is recommended for 7 speed box. 5 speed box is 236.14 and is red.

Got to love the Internet and car forums .

236.14 is red and is for 5g to 7g speed boxes .

236.15 is blue and is for 7g+ ( stop start ).

It's stupid all these numbers , even Mercedes main dealers put the wrong ATF in occasionally .

I know it says 236.14 , but MB7 oil mentions 7g Tronic gearbox use , which is the same description as the Fuchs atf 7134 .
The atf for your gearbox is Fuchs ATF 4134 , so I would hesitate to say it is correct oil ??
