Red face What transmission fluid to use ?

I just checked the dipstick, and trans fluid is low. Can't seem to find any info in owners manual or the Discussion search. Please don't say ONLY Mercedes brand. Going away in morning and must use something that is available on a Sunday. Thanks

If you go to MB parts here, they will sell you Castrol! I use Valvoline synthetic ATF in all my cars.
