Mercedes-Benz S-Class Transmission Fluid Malaysia
Mercedes-Benz S-Class 7G-Tronic or 9G-Tronic ATF type, change interval and Malaysia pricing.
All S-Class W222 and W223 in Malaysia use the 9G-Tronic automatic transmission with MB 236.15 ATF. This is the same fluid as C-Class W205, E-Class W213 and GLC. The S-Class has a larger fluid capacity due to the bigger torque converter required for the V6/V8 engines.
Service Specification
- Fluid: MB 236.15 9G-Tronic ATF
- Capacity: approximately 9–10 litres for full flush on V6/V8 S-Class
- Interval: every 40,000–60,000 km — do not treat as lifetime fluid
- Cost at 4M Car Care
Judder on S-Class
S-Class 9G-Tronic judder is the same mechanism as C/E/GLC — ATF friction modifier depletion. However, on an S-Class the judder tends to be more pronounced because the V8 produces more torque. Full ATF flush resolves the judder in most cases. If the gearbox has been run very long on degraded fluid, a mechatronics adaptation reset after flush is recommended.
