Here I post the pics from the Mercedes Benz official software for SLK320 and similar.
In my case, my manual gearbox, and I am quite sure is for all Crossfire sold in the world, it comes with a ref. in the Gearbox wich is 716.667.
As you can see, for 716.6, the line recommends 75w85, 235.10.
So, for 716.667 Gearbox, the oil is 1.5 Liters of BB00_40-P-0235-10A.
