I am replacing the fluids on my 1973 220d and want to know the best for each: Engine oil, IP oil, Coolant, Manual trans , Axle, Brake. Thanks in advance!

Here's what I would use:
Motor: 15W40 Rotella for Conventional or Mobil 1 5W40 for synthetic (Make sure any oil you use is Diesel rated) IP: I believe this called for a straight SAE30 without detergent - check manual Coolant: Mercedes Brand or Xerex G-05 (either one 50/50 mix with distilled water) Brake Fluid: any DOT 3 or DOT4 Axle: Mobil 1 75w90 Transmission: Redline MTL or any Dexron ATF you care to use I'm sure others will have their own suggestions
