E300TD 1999 W210 Power Steering Fluid

[nigelwu]

Can anyone tell me what is the correct PSF for this vehicle. There seems to be a lot of confusion on various forums with some saying MB P/N BQ1460001 others saying MB P/N Q1320001. Unfortunately it is not in the manual. Called MB and they are having to go away and think about it! Given that it is important to get the right one if anyone knows for sure..........

Apparently it is Titan PSF which meets MB236.6. See attached. Hope this helps someone.

The saloons and the estates use different hydraulic fluids for the steering due to estates having SLS which shares a hydraulic circuit with the pas.
If your car is an estate then the correct fluid can be bought at Euro Car Parts or Carparts4less. It is made by Febi costs £10.49 a litre and has the Ecp part number 963220200.
Saloon 210's use Dexron II-MB 236.3.

Any old ATF is fine

Thanks for the info. just discovered that the MB P/N is written on the cap. It is 001 989 20 03 (remembering this is an estate with SLS). This oil is to specification MB244.0 and matches the info kindly given above by ChipChop.
