Transmission Oil
OK, I know this has probably been done to death, but could someone shed some light on aftermarket transmission oil?
My dealer is asking about 24 AUD per litre, and I read somewhere that Shell ATF 134 is within spec', but this doesn't seem to be available in Australia.
Shell website (Australia) lists Spirax S5 ATF X, but again, I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Anyhoo, are there other available oils, or should I just pay the dealer for their oil?

OK, thanks for that.
That oil is available over here.
Could someone confirm that the required MB spec for the oil is MB 236.14 ATF, for a 722.6 transmission.
