Re: [MBZ] 190D 2.2 Tranny Fluid Capacity
Thanks everyone! Especially for the reminder about the 3-4 qt initial fill-up. Changing the tranny fluid is messy enough as it is don't need any more mess on top of it! It was so nice to have a drain plug... the SD doesn't and it sure makes a difference!!! John

John, thought most MB's of the 70's-90's had a drain plug for the TC as well as the tranny. On 1/4/07, John Robbins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks everyone!

[MBZ] 190D 2.2 Tranny Fluid Capacity
I feel horrible asking this since it is definitely a RTFM thing but I have no manual to read... so a quick question. 84 190D 2.2 Automatic What is the transmission fluid capacity?I'm about to change the filter, etc... Thanks! John
Re: [MBZ] 190D 2.2 Tranny Fluid Capacity
John - assuming you change all the fluid (including the converter), most M-B auto trannys use just shy of 8 qts; I always make sure I have 8 qts on hand when I change fluid and filter.

Drain the pan and the torque converter. 6.2 liters (6.55 qt). Fill in 3-4 qt, then run the engine and shift thru the gears (to fill the torque converter) and then add the rest. Otherwise the pan may overflow. Marshall -- Marshall Booth Ph.D. Ass't Prof. (ret.) Univ of Pittsburgh School of Medicine [EMAIL PROTECTED]
