Looking at fastlane for ATF for my 82 300cd, I get nothing. Looking at psf, I get the febi bilstein 08972 fluid, which is an mb sheet 236.6/7 fluid. Mb psf is a sheet 236.3 fluid, and may be an undyed dexII fluid, or may differ some other way. Meanwhile, per my other post, I get the feeling that 236.6/7 is the right spec for dex-II specced ATs for w123s. Sure dex III and VI are backwards compatible, but that isn't the discussion here.

Anyway, are we really sure that the bilstein fluid shown on fastlane is correct for ps systems? And, can that fluid sold at fastlane be used as ATF?

Thanks.

Here's what OEM power steering should look like.
Spec: sheet 236.1; P/N:0009898803


Fastlane should be able to get it with that part number provided to them.
