Mercedes DIY Automatic Transmission Fluid Change - Смяна на маслото на скоростите

You should consider changing the automatic transmission fluid and filter on your Mercedes-Benz every 60,000 to 80,000 miles. Years ago Mercedes-Benz claimed that these transmissions were sealed for life and didn’t require any oil change. But their recommendation on transmission fluid has changed and now they recommend that you do change the fluid.
Many owners and mechanics believe that if you change the transmission fluid you may experience transmission problems. The argument that is used to support that claim is that the transmission will act up because the viscosity of the old oil has changed compared to the new. Or that there may be particles that will be dislodged inside the transmission which can clog the new filter.
Our recommendation is to change the transmission fluid to extend the life of the transmission.
Required Transmission Oil
You will need 10 quarts of transmission fluid. Mercedes-Benz recommends that you use the MBZ ATF 236.14 transmission fluid. The only problem is that that oil sells for around $20 per liter.
Transmission Fluid Alternative
Valvoline MaxLife Transmission Fluid Alternative for Mercedes BenzIf you are looking for an alternative to Mercedes-Benz oil, we would recommend the Valvoline MaxLife or the Shell 134 transmission fluid. It is important to understand that Mercedes-Benz doesn’t have these two fluids on their approval list. That doesn’t mean that these fluids don’t meet the required specification. In fact, the same 722.6 transmission is used in many Dodge cars, and Dodge does use the Valvoline MaxLife in the same transmission. We have also used the Valvoline MaxLife in multiple Mercedes-Benz cars and have not experienced any problems. Valvoline Maxlife says that their oil is suitable for Mercedes-Benz, and Shell states that it meets the MB specs.
Tools & Parts Needed
In order to change the transmission fluid oil you will need:
5 mm Allen wrench
Mercedes-Benz 722.6 Transmission Fluid Dipstick Tool
Transmission Filler Lock Pin
Mercedes-Benz Transmission Filter & Gasket Kit 722.6xx 1400095
We would recommend that you use a complete kit that includes the filter and gasket.

Mercedes-Benz 7-Speed Transmission Fluid and Filter Change InstructionsMercedes-Benz cars made after 2003 use a 7-speed automatic transmission, called 7G-Tronic. The 7-speed transmission offers superb better performance, shorter shift times, and improved fuel economy. Even though the manufacturer may recommend, the transmission is sealed for life. It doesn't need servicing; transmission fluid and filter changes every 60,000 miles can extend the transmission life when properly performed.
In this guide, we go over the steps required to change transmission fluid and filter on the 7-speed transmission. This is a simple job that you can perform in your garage. It requires a few basic tools and a special connector.Parts you will need
