236.14 atf availability in australia
Vehicle : 2002 c180 2.0 non-kompressor (m111 engine)
Hi, I'm looking for some atf with grade 236.14. The thing is, I can't just import something like this from overseas because most people won't supply it to overseas buyers (because its a dangerous good) and the people who might will charge a lot to get the permits, etc. My local stealership will charge me 280 bucks for 8 litres of atf, but this is not only too expensive, but also happens to be the lower grade atf 236.10 which I don't really want especially since I know that:
a)the 2008 bulletin updated the atf grade on my car from 236.10 to 236.14 and
b) I can get the same lower grade atf from retailers for 100 bucks for 8 litres.
It seems that hardly ANYONE seems to supply the higher grade atf which I'm very surprised about (or at least doesn't have it on hand, there's one place where you can order it in which turns out to be bloody expensive ~300 bucks for 8 litres).
Here is the list:

Can anyone suggest where I can find such products for a reasonable price in Australia?

I bought 20 litres of Fuchs Titan 4134 in 4 l containers for $286 from an outlet in Port Macquarie for $286 last year. . Phone 0429007455.
A Fuchs major outlet is at 2 Holland St Wickham , Newcastle 2293. ph. 0249690444 or 1800180013.
Good luck.
