2018 GLS 450
Transfer Case Fluid
Hi All,
Am new to this forum and dont know how to go about. So please excuse me if I get this thing wrong.
Trying to change Transfer case fluid on my 2018 GLS 450.
Looking for the right fluid but am not getting answers.
Please specify if anyone has any know abouts.
I did went to local MB dealership and was asked to use ATF 3353.
the bottle says its a Automatic Transmission Fluid.
Still in doubt so I came to the forum to clarify.
Any help will be appreciated and Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Have you checked the MB operating fluids website? https://operatingfluids.mercedes-benz.com/sheet/231.1. Start with 231.1 to find the fluid sheet for your vehicle's xfer case, and then go to the sheet listed to find approved fluids.
