No, at least not in the USA they didn't. All the W140.134 models from
1992-95 in the USA have the same 4-speed 722.3 transmission. It was
the gassers, after 1995 I think, that got the new, beefy 722.6
five-speed auto in the USA.

The lucky folks across the pond got the W140.135, which had both the
OM606 turbo motor (which we NEVER saw), and that engine was mated with
the same 722.6 five-speed auto. Now THAT would be one heckuva car!!
What a shame MB never imported them. I bet they'd have the highest
resale value of any W140 chassis.
