Yes sockeye770, you are reading it correctly. I'm sick of wondering if the sprintshift van will come home from work under its own steam or on a flatbed tilt tray, hence I bought another van with the true automatic.
When reading the webpage suggested by socketeye770 it says
ATF BMV can also be used in Mercedes Benz and Chrysler vehicles where MB 236.12, MB 236.13, MB 236.14, MB 236.15, MB 236.16 & MB 236.17 are specified in Mercedes Benz 5 speed W5A 580 / NAG1, NAG2V Sport Transmissions, 7 G-Tronic models W7A 700 / NAG2 and 9 G-Tronic models W9A 725.
So yes this oil will be fine.
My next question is:
I have quite a bit of shuddering under load just before gear changes. Is it worth found a partial oil change and filter, or dump the lot? Ive read some have had trouble when dumping the lot as too much rubbish comes free and blocks the system. Whereas in a partial oil change the filter has time to catch it all if you do a gradual oil change over the next few 1000kms.
Any thoughts, experiences?
