E320 trans fluid flush

So I was calling dealers around the area for a trans flush and I get to:

http://www.euromotorcars.com/EMC/Bet..._Services.html

Basically, the service manager tried to sell the BG "Automatic transmission system flush" suggesting it's what they use now. I asked for him to quote a trans flush using MB fluid, filter, and gasket, and he dismissed it saying the BG flush is what EuroMotor Cars uses. Now, someone call me crazy but somehow I don't think that's right.

Anyone have similar experiences with their dealers?

Never flush

a 722.6
your 98 has a drain for the pan and the torque converter.Use mb spec fluid.Follow the procedure on mercedesshop.com or the diy area on benzworld.org w210 section.
Use only mb 722.6 fluid.
If you do it yourself I have the special dipstick needed for proper fill level.Pm me for details.
