The stock clutches sure don't live long do they? I went with some syt. trans fluid that Chevron makes. My thinking was anything has got to be better than ATF

DELVAC 50 and add one quart extra. Chrysler was the only one of the mercedes applications that used ATF.

mobiltrans shc DC 50wt manual transmission. Oil Is what is actually recomended. but I did find Lucas makes a 50 wt transmission oil and that's what I am running in mine just because its more convenient for me. But my original plan was to run gorilla juice.
