Hi, Folks-

I recently purchased a 1982 240D with a 4 speed manual transmission. I just love the car, but it came without an owner's manual. I want to change the transmission oil, but I haven't been able to find out what type/grade of transmission oil I should use. I did find someone who had posted a 1976 240D manual on the web. I think that manual said to use automatic transmission fluid, but that seemed strange.

Does anyone out there know what the proper oil for a 82 240D transmission is? Any recommendations on brand would be welcomed as well.

Thanks in advance,

Max Behensky
