I've come to look at MB fluid recommendations with a jaundiced eye. Here's why.

They recommended ATF Type A Suffix A for my manual transmission. After some research I found that this was the GM ATF from the sixties that had a small quanitity of whale oil ,and it had not been available in the US for at least 15 years. The modern substitute at the time was Dexron II and Dexron III, today.

Second example. One of their rear axle oil recommendations was a Pennzoil 85W-90, and they gave the four digit Pennzoil product number. After not being successful finding any, I called Pennzoil, and they said this particular specified product was not marketed in North America! The equivalent North American product was a 80W-90 GL-5, which was commonly available.

If MBNA is going to publish an approved product list for the USA, it ought to be limited to products that are ACTUALLY AVAILABLE IN THE USA.

I know this doesn't answer your question, but I needed to vent. I believe an appropriate ATF for your car is Dexron III, but wait for comfirmation from others.

Also remember that your 560 had a clutch type LSD and it needs the additive in the 80W-90 GL-5. It's the same as the LSD additive sold by GM and Ford dealers.
