2007 SLK 280 auto gearbox fluid

[Yamaman]

Hi ,
Can anyone tell me how to replace the geatbox oil on my wife's 2007 SLK280 auto or point me in the direction of any videos that show how this is done as I can't seem to find any !!!!!
Also what spec oil do I need ??
Thanks in advance

It's a bit tricky as a diy. You need some special tools to fill the box and at the correct temperature.

The oil is quite specific too.

Cheers BlackC55 for replying !!......... I was thinking it was going to be more of a specialist job rather than a DIY TYPE scenario.......I'll have to get it booked in as I want it doing for peace of mind as I've just bought the car !!
Thanks again though
Cheers

Ask for a flush and not just a change, there could/should be a difference in price
