SLS AMG Transmission Oil / Fluid ???

Hi,


I need to refill my SLS AMG transmission with transmission oil / fluid after working on the car and removing the coolers.
The local MB dealer does not have it in stock and can order it........but ONLY in 20 Liters (about 5 Gallons) for 776 USD !!!!


Now I want to have my car finally finished after 9 months and if needed I have to buy this 20 liters BUT maybe someone can help me out and explain what is so special to this SLS AMG Transmission oil / fluid and if there is another solution / oil that I could use.

I want to it as soon as possible...

Help....

Found this one online:


Mercedes Part # 001 989 68 03 13
Specification Sheet 236.14 or otherwise known as ATF134

Would this be the one I need?

I wouldn't run with that just yet. I'm not an SLS expert, but verify the following:

Model is C197 / R197 ?
Engine is M159 ?
7G DCT ? Model 724 ?

The 236.14 specs are for 5 speed and 7 speed Auto trans, not DCT.

Try these two links, both SLS specific. One is the ATF hydraulic system (don't think it's what you need) and the other is for the gear set...
