W210 atf change

[nick100]

I'm having my atf changed tomorow and wondered how much to put in? We've got the proper stuff from merc but does anyone know the correct amount on a 99 W210 E240?

Do we need any special tools?

Cheers

Nick

It depends slightly upon when you car was built in '99 as they stopped fitting drain plugs to the torque converter. The gearbox holds around 7 ltrs with 4 in the box and 3 in the torque converter.
