ML 163 auto box clunk

[SATURDAY KIDS]

Hello all, when i am slowing to a halt or rolling along very slowly 'say in a queue' and completely come of the gas the gear box tends to make a rather awkward clunk as i guess it drops back into first gear, not all the time but getting a bit more regular.Any thoughts would be very much appreciated as always.
One other thing, which engine oil would you recommend for my 2000 ML petrol auto.
Thanks again in advance.

Has the box fluid been changed in the last 40k miles or ever


Engine oil use something with a spec of 229.3 or 5

Hello TV, i do not know if the box fluid has been changed, the car has done 75k so i would be happy to change it regardless, could a complete numpty {me} do it on my drive, is it easy ie access, how much do you think MB would charge for a fluid change.

Indies do the complete job for £160 and a complete change,not a ½ change as MB do
