I was speaking about the original poster's car, as indicated, a 1997 C-Class. It does have the 722.6, and though some might advocate using non-MB fluid and all kinds of additives, I can't find a single MB tech that would.

I have found more than a handful of 722.6 owners that messed with their trannies, and ended up with an expensive disaster, thanks to severly wrong fluid levels, incorrect fluid and other goofs.
