What transmission fluid should I use in my Mercedes-Benz 722.6 transmission? MB 236.10 or MB 236.14? RAVENOL M 9-Series Fluid has Mercedes-Benz OEM Approval for the MB 236.14 quality specification. This is the up to date transmission fluid for the Mercedes-Benz 722.6 5-speed automatic transmissions. RAVENOL M 9-Series MB 236.14 fluid is backwards compatible to all previous Mercedes-Benz MB 236.12 and MB 236.10 specs. If you are doing a complete fluid flush that includes the torque converter this is the kit for you. This kit will allow you to use the up to date Mercedes-Benz MB 236.14 transmission fluid formula for your 722.6 transmission. If you are just changing a portion of the transmission fluid and are going to allow the original MB 236.10 fluid in some areas of the transmission you might choose to use our transmission service kit that includes the orignial MB 236.10 fluid. This will allow a more similar MB 236.10 transmission fluid formulation mix. However for the best transmission performance it is best to flush all of the transmission fluid.

Why change your Mercedes-Benz automatic transmission fluid and transmission filter? Your transmission has hundreds of moving components. Over time these internal components mesh with one another, begin to wear, and create fine metallic particles. These fine metallic particles contaminate your Mercedes-Benz ATF and plug the transmission filter. This contamination affects your transmissions efficiency and long term performance, causing more friction and wear on transmission components. By having a regular transmission fluid and filter service interval for your Mercedes-Benz, you will easily extend the life of your transmission. With clean automatic transmission fluid and a fresh transmission filter you will be providing clean lubrication and proper filtration for your transmission. This important maintenance interval will support a long lasting well lubricated and protected transmission, minimizing chances of costly transmission repairs and problems.
The recommended transmission fluid and filter service interval for the Mercedes 722.6 transmission is between 40,000-60,000 miles. We have observed the Mercedes-Benz 722.6 5-speed ATF getting contaminated earlier than usual. The 5-speed 722.6 ATF has a dirty metallic tint as soon as 40,000 miles. We recommend changing the transmission fluid and transmission filter every 40,000 miles to minimize the chances of wear on critical transmission components. Many people choose to just flush the transmission fluid, at Blauparts we recommend the transmission fluid and filters be changed along with the related components. This can greatly maximize gearbox performance and service life.
Having regular Mercedes-Benz transmission fluid and filter services on your automobile is great preventive maintenance. Having a regular service interval for your transmission is much more logical and inexpensive in the long term. Neglecting your Mercedes-Benz transmission service can lead to costly transmission repairs or even having to replace a transmission for several thousands of dollars.
