Synthetic Trans Fluid for 96 C280

Are there any adverse issues with using Valvoline Durablend Syntetic blend ATF in 96 c280.

Thanks

You can try it, as long as it specifically states on the container that it is compatable with or replaces merconIII/Dexron ATF.

Martineau (how do you pronounce that??),

If you go with the synthetic (I am going to on my next tranny service), please let me know the results!

THanks a bunch.
