You may best be served by a good indy---my reason for suggesting that is--- transmissions do not have coolant-----the engine has coolant and the transmission has transmission fluid-----if you are confused don't play around with the transmission----use someone that knows what he is doing.

But if you insist, make real sure that what ever you use, make sure the fluid meets the MB specs(Shell). All mfgs put that on their containers----read the stickies for the spec for your car.
