@Grayson Elliott I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Grayson Elliott it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account!
@Gerald Asher Happy to help :D
😳😲Not one damn drip on his light gray 👕 or 👖..... First clean tech I seen ever. 😂
Mike Smoot facts!!!
Very well explained video for those not so experienced. Absolutely brilliant!!!
Great job, dont forget to do the pan bolt torque dance, 4Nm then 180 degrees tightening to stretch the new bolts that were supposed to be used each time. I think they are aluminum.
Do you recommend draining the torque converter?
Looking all over for a vid like this. Finally, you covered all the details and easy to understand. Thanks.
Benz turned a simple oil service into a doctor procedure.
The key is to know how much oil to refill with then no more guess work!
Clear and concise video. Thanks.
Torque aluminum one time use bolts to 4nm evenly.
With torque wrench turn bolt head to 180 degrees or 8 nm and stop turning the bolt 6:42 whatever comes first.
Good stuff. Helps me decide what I want to do in the driveway vs what I have the local Euro repair do. Never the dealer!
Ive done this 12 times now.. no issues
Best video, clear explanation to the point. Thank you, keep up the great work!
Great job, looks like I need to get that excellent pump you have!
nice, clean and to the point. 5-STARTS
Thank you, Vito!!
You have a really nice presentation style. Great job!
Thanks for these videos!
Thanks for taking the time to share this great information, it was really helpful
Nice work and simple explanation, if I had the tools I believe I code it myself.
Man I need this guy working on my car
I really like the way you do things.
Lol your a beast bro no gloves and your hands are still clean !
not a single drip spilled !!!! AMAZING !!! :-)

Thanks for sharing your experience and video great informative video.
I have a 2001 ml320 with the 722.6 5-speed transmission and the drain and filter procedure is similar but there should be a fill tube in the engine bay near the back of the motor, it has a black cap with a red locking pin that’ll need to be replaced once opened/broken (inexpensive). Just measure the quantity of fluid you drained, then put that same amount back in thru the full tube. They also sell a universal Mercedes transmission fluid dipstick if you want to check for accurate levels.
You can flush the 722.6 transmission by removing the lower fluid cooler line from the radiator and letting it drain into a bucket. (It will only drain when the engine is turned on)
Be sure to fill the transmission up with the amount that drained out of the pan first before doing this (usually around 5L). Then drain 2L from the cooler line and add 2L of new fluid into the fill tube and repeat 2-4times depending on how clean you want it.
I usually do a flush every 50,000kms and I’ve got around 280,000kms on the truck now
What I like to do when setting the level and waiting for the fluid to warm up, is to overfill the transmission, and then cycle through all the gears waiting for about 30 seconds through each gear.
That way, you are using all the fluid you opened and cycling as much fresh trans fluid through the engine.
If the fluid came out extra black, I will wait for the trans to cool down and let it run a little longer to try and cycle as much fresh fluid through everything as possible
wisdom
Is this what MB recommends? This sounds like the proper way to do it but maybe there's an underlying condition preventing this sequence to take place which is why MB does it differently
@@aliislam580 no, the MB dealership will just do a quick job, so it will likely just be a straight drain and fill.
I recommend doing a drain and fill once, then again after 3000 miles, and one more at the next oil change (7000 more miles). Guarentees the fluid is almost completely exchanged and contaminants flushed
@@reddyuda I previously bought a used 2024 E350 with 110k miles but don’t have the service history. Is it still safe to change the transmission fluid?
@@aliislam580 yes, the main difference being do not flush the system, just do a simple drain and fill. You can keep the old fluid in case of any problems you could swap it back in.
With 110k Miles you should be totally fine with a simple drain and fill. Wait 3000 miles before doing any additional fluid changes
So my 2014 Toyota Camry has the over flow pipe that threads into drain and the bung threads into this so there is no need to knock anything off. And there is a fill port up high on the transmission itself and so no need to pump up the new fluid. Drain and fills are super easy. The usual applies , warm up tranny to 113 F( about 45C , I believe) . Its a tedious process with my E350 and I usually renew the overflow pipe and filter along with pan gasket and bolts. Great video Thanks.
Thank you guys! I mean that!
I just changed the the trans fluid gasket and filter. My headache of a car kicks asphalt again.
I couldn't have done it without you guys!
Derreck Smith.
Ps
Amazing content!
Derreck, thank you for watching! Cheers to our headaches!
Good work
thanks a lot for the easy way video.
Nice job
This is a very well done video and very helpful!
Great job
Great job 👏🏻
Great video!
Nice video I need to change my transmission fluid on my e430
great video, thank you
Oil pan bolts is 4nm PLUS 180 degree turn. Just did the service on wifes S205 today.
FCP, thank you for the video, but you need to also provide torque values for the pan bolts (mentioned below by another user as 4 NM + 180 turn) and drain bolt.
Very nice showmen and explanation
Good on ya mate!
cheers from me and Australia
Now I can try do my trans
Excellent thank you
the way you explain now I can understand fluid level setting. if you can slow down how put over back is good
nice job!
That was great information, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
спасибо друг!
i love fcp euro im getting ready to buy oil and filters to 2 mercedes for the last time. life time guarantee
You send them your old oil?
@@rafaelrjarquin I haven't done it yet. But that's what I hear.
@@damron2 that's what they claim, but I didn't know for the oil.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Dang. Great video. Maybe I should stop making mine… great work sir.
Thank you boss man
Well explained
Thanks, desmondou!
Wow, now that’s impressive. He’s wearing a light grey top and not so much as one drop of transmission fluid ended up anywhere on his clothes, Respect ✔️, a challenge to which I strive.
Mann u did that with no oil stains clean and quick 😅 😭😭💎💎✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿😎😎😎😎
Kyle you rock! I have the exact same car. Do you have a garage? Or do you with exclusively at fcp? Where are you located?
Thank you for your amazing videos. I wish there were more. I've seen then all already for this car. :)
NIce video! Can you please do the 722.6 oil change too?
Question: what are the normal on-going operations temperature of this trainy--not just at the beginning when you check for fluid level?
Great video, well done. I just want to confirm the transmission bolt torque spec's? Thank you
Is that knocking sound from the enigne normal ? My 2008 c300 has been doing it, less loud then the one in the video but its the same pitch, for over 60 000km now and it hasn't increased in pitch nor got worse so I presume its normal for the m272 engines ?
I recently changed my transmission fluid on my ML280 W164, however as mentioned in other comments i drained the torque converter, which is a simple job and holds lots a surprisingly large amount of ATF fluid, i then flushed the oil cooler with new clean oil until all the old black crappy ATF ran crystal clear, which took at least another litre, i ended up using around 12 litres in total to complete the task but that included around a litre used to flush and renew the transfer box oil also, might as well do a thorough job if your going to get your hands dirty....
My point is that if you follow this guide as good as it is you will at best only be changing a little over 50% of the gearbox oil which seems pretty pointless to me, especially if you are using all genuine parts as they are quite costly, the sump retaining bolts are of the stretch variety so should be replaced with new items when carrying out the procedure.
Excellent suggestion, we do offer a 12 liter kit for those looking to drain the converter. It is located here:
www.fcpeuro.com/products/mercedes-automatic-transmission-fluid-service-kit-12-liters-pentosin-722-6fck2
You can change the torque converter and the main pan which is the majority of the oil, i would say 10 litres would be sufficient, i used a couple more but that was in the oil cooler and pipework flushing process.
The drain plug on my ML is accessed through a hole in the gearbox casing, you remove a rubber blanking plug first and looks a little awkward at first glance, i used a 1/4 drive ratchet and wobble end extension, quite straight forward really.
I would check on one of the Mercedes forums first to see if the process is the same on the W219.
D Farnsworth changing only 50% may be useless in some cases, but sometimes it is might even better to not flush the whole transmission and just do a simple fluid change.
The problem is not all of the torque converters have drain holes. I have been servicing MB vehicles for 17 years and I have serviced my share of 722.6, 9s and AMG Speedshift transmisions. If you perform this service during proper intervals, you don't need to go through that process. That is for people that wait until 100K miles.
The fluid is not the only reason for the service. The filter holds a lot of material and the magnet can get completely covered with clutch material as well as the bottom of the pan. I have customers with Ford E250 work vans with over 300K on the original transmissions because I change the fluid ever 40K. Hell my work van has 200K on the original transmission and it still shifts firm and I have only changed filters, cleaned pans, and replaced about 4 quarts at a time. All red in color. Your process is for people that don't follow the scheduled maintenance and waits until its a problem. If the conductor plate speed sensors get covered with material because a person waited too long, all of the flushing in the world will not save the expensive bill about to come.
Great place for buying Mercedes parts. I ruined a new Febi Wheel Hub purchased here, FCP replaced it free of cost, they have this "abuse it and return it for free replacement" policy that turned out to be true. Because of this insurance I expect the price to be little high, so I always compare prices elsewhere, yet find that FCPEuro beat competitor's price 95% of the time. Bought both my front air suspensions (Arnott) here and no worries about it going bad. I would like to find a similar shop for my Odyssey.
Glad to hear everything worked out well with the replacement.
I have a 2017 AMGC 63S coupe and I need to change the transmission fluid and filter as well as the differential fluid for my 30k mile B service. Does my car have a torque converter that need to be drained? I don't see that covered in this video and I also don't see how you flush out the left over oil in the trans coolers. Don't you need to turn the engine at the crank until the drain bolt for the torque converter is aligned so you can drain the torque converter completely or is that not done on my car? Also, don't you need to remove the return line to the pan and add a hose extension to it so you can flush out the old fluid left behind by pushing new fluid through it. After which you warm up the trans to setting the final fluid level. I plan on doing this next week so I could really use some help on getting clarity on which steps I can skip and which are necessary.
What color should the atf be? red or blue? Also that overflow valve is an indication of amount of fluid needed? Like get it full of fluid and let the excess drain down from the overflow?
Looks like a great fun company great vids ,been a subscriber👍🏽where yall located?
Any video with the converter drain?
The torque for pan is 4nm then 180 degrees
Some forum discussions recommend resetting the shift adaptations after every fluid change. What is your take on this?
does 7g and 7speed mct shares the same type of trans oil？
I bought some of that 1 LV fluid also. $50.00 for 5 liters
How did you repair the broken bolt holding the pan?
Is it the same grearbox as the vito w447 (2016)? It sure looks the same.
Can you please share the parts# of the drain plug crush washer? Also, do you have another video for draining fluid from the torque converter with a 4 mm drain plug?
What is the part number for the Pump to transfer the transmission fluid to the pan...
Can we get one like this for the ole 5apeed auto that comes mated to the M113k
What about the oil that's left in the torque converter and the oil cooler?
Perfect video! Would this kit be good for 2006 ML500. Thanks
Yes sir it would fit just fine on your vehicle!
Hi Kyle
Is it true that a Mercedes transmission dipstick will suit all models. But the level that is appropriate may be different. The east west engines only need level 4 on the dipstick. Other Mercs can go to level 12 (MAX). Cheers
Is it good idea to change fluids when you are not sure if it has been changed. I’ve heard horror stories about bmws and stuff when changing fluids it creates hard shifts and issues with the new fluids. I drive a w212 m276 usually. So I was wondering about these ATF changes
How is his shirt so damn clean!!👍
We try not to question it 😂
Can it be filled from the top if you don't have the special fill tool?
Hi .
I need a video of how to drain the oil of the Torque Converter Mercedes gl
ThAnks
what exact pump you used and what obd reader?
I have a question - I was swapping engine and accidentally pulled torque converter out of trans input shaft ( yes I unbolted it from fly wheel ) , so how do I properly refill trans fluid after mistake like that .
Hey Kyle, not sure if you’ll see this but I enjoy watching your FCP Euro videos since I’m a MB guy and you’re the MB manager. I have a stupid question that recently dawned on me. I have a 2010 C300. Assuming that someone can hold the pan steady, even if you need help from a second set of hands, can you not fill the transmission pan with new fluid close to the top of the new overflow plug, and then bolt the pan back up and turn the engine on, wait for the temp to get to where it needs to, and then slowly open the drain plug and see if it’s dribbling?
No way.. the internal over flow is pipe is higher than the pan I guess.
Why is it important to monitor the trans fluid temperature and run the car while refilling?
I know that the transmission takes way more fluid (TC and cooler lines) but is a partial change done to prevent the transmission from slipping? I ask this because I did a full flush on a high mileage Toyota Camry and the transmission shifted really smooth but it was also slipping. Had to drain some fluid and pour in Lucas Stop Slip. My MB has 95k so I plan on doing this but should I do a full flush (TC and cooler) or just a partial like in this video?
Just a drain and fill is recommended. It's possible to run into issues when flushing out the torque converter.
My 2010 e550 4Matic goes in gears but won’t move would that mean I have to do a transmission change?
Can someone tell me where to find a video of the torque converter draining/refilling process?
Hi, Is there a video for the MB - X166 GL500 -Year 2014 - Transmission fluid service with Torque Converter drain. Kindly share the link. Thanks
9.5 liter is around that. I almost fill to that number and let the other over flow. Its better to use open/closed valve on your rubber cable so U can see how it dipping instead of take off the valve.
Hey Kyle, do you think I can use a cheap Harbor Freight hand pump to pump new fluid back in using the adapter of course. Thanks
Most likely.
How to change service a Mercedes V class automatic transmission on 2002 2.2 cdi 638 ....4HP-20 ....please help
What about the oil left in the torque convertor.
It would be nice if you would include the 5th liter in your kit. This way when you change it on a Sunday, you are not screwed.
Yup been there! Racing to the Autoparts store before they close on a Sunday afternoon for one more Litre
How do I know if my 2016 Mercedes C300 has a torque converter?
Nice video . how did you not even get a drip on you ? In your opinion is pentosin a very high quality atf or just mid range quality ?
Hello Ken, we would consider Pentosin a high quality oil and very comparable to other brands we sell.
Would you have to perform this drain and fill multiple times (maybe 2-3) in order to ensure you have more or less gotten out most of the old fluid? I'd imagine that the transmission contains way more than the amount drained and filled in this video?
Tom, that would be recommended if wish to fully flush the system as best as possible. On a transmission that has been regularly serviced, a simple procedure like this is sufficient.
Always change the torque converter fluid as well.
can the fluid be filled and checked through the dipstick tube? i know MB didnt provide dipsticks for the 722 trans, but aftermarket ones do exist
The 722.9 transmission unlike the 722.6 does not have a dipstick tube. Both the fill and level check are performed from below
My question is , how do you drain/flush the transmission properly? On the 722.6 model after the replacing of the filter and putting fluid in( the older models have a dipstick) you run the engine, open one of the transmission oil cooler lines and drain 1 liter or so, top it off and re do( there is a spec for how much to drain each time).
I want to do this job on my own, the stealership wants 800$. I have a 2007 E320 Bluetec. Do I have to mess with the torque converter at all?
Thank you in advance
The dealership wants $1k to change my transmission fluid 😢
Can I use this procedure on a 2012 C63 AMG with the MCT version of the transmission?
got have exact right fluid though!
To set the level, Do I need to put it in gears, or I just let it idling on park?
Rafael Rj he didn’t do a flush, just an oil filter change.
Do I put the same amount to the 2012 c63? Thanks
Is it similar procedure to the 722.6 5 spd? Waiting for parts from GCP to do it on my CL55
I have a 2001 ml320 with the 722.6 5-speed transmission and the drain and filter procedure is similar but there should be a fill tube in the engine bay near the back of the motor, it has a black cap with a red locking pin that’ll need to be replaced once opened/broken (inexpensive).

I usually do a flush every 50,000kms and I’ve got around 280,000kms on the truck now
Not going thru the gears while the temp is going up ?
