Is that on the recommended fluid list? If you are refering to MaxLife, that is a blend. My best friend (since birth) owns a transmission repair shop and tells me to ALWAYS use a Benz spec fluid. There are specific friction modifiers for every transmission needs. These trannys are way to expensive to mess with. Note: I didn't buy from the dealer, but got the Shell MB spec fluid for $9/qt from an oil dealer.
Just my word of caution.
