If I knew how to search the archives or if my memory were better I wouldn't
have to bother you with this - is Mobil 1 ATF acceptable for use in the
power steering? It's for my 91 300D 2.5T W124
ATF is NOT approved for your car (but I doubt that it would do any
harm). You should use either the Mercedes fluid or the Febi/Bilstein
equivalent that Rusty sells. The approved oil is one that is slightly
less viscous than the old type A transmission fluid and has NO lubricity
additives. The PS fluid is especially better than conventional Dexron
II/III fluids in winter. Mobil 1 ATF eliminates the cold weather problem
that most ATFs exhibit.
