I have a 722.6 gearbox in a W204 C200 Merc. I drained about 4.5 l from the tran. first, and then 4.75 l from the torque converter. The torque converter has its own drain plug. Of course I replaced the filter too.
The way I do it I have a Toyota Sequoia 4.7 V8 automatic transmission with no dipstick to check the levels i just let it over night then in the morning take out the drin plug then what's comes out I measure what's comes out I never needed to check temperature I already Done it twice never had any problems with my transmission I have 271.578 miles on it transmission still shifts Smoothly. No need to check temperature.
This the way I do it with my 2004 mercedes clk 320c transmission fluid change never needed to check temperature never had any problems with my transmission still shifts really nice
Hi Abbas, if this service is being done as a part of service intervals; let's say after 60,000 km and you would like to drive the car for another 60,000 km without changing the filter and cleaning the pan, I would say it is not recommended. But definitely fluid change is better than "not doing any servicing" at all...
(722.6) How many litres total 7.5 or 8 ? Torque converter capacity ? Drain pan capacity ? Have shifting issues after fluid change. Filled 4 litres after draining ( low or overfilled)? C200, w204, 2009 model What is the normal Mercedes transmission operating temperature?
@@MaxReviewss thanks for that. I did a partial change of about 5 litres using nulon multi vehicle about 6 months ago and its been great. I extracted the oil instead of dropping the pan but it made the world of difference.
@@MaxReviewss hi mate, yes that's my next job, I just wanted to give a partial change first and dilute as much as the old stuff as possible then I'm going to do the pan and filter. I'll either use the nulon stuff again or the penrite. Cheers

Great, not all torque converters have the drain plug.

There is always an easier way...
Hmmm your trans dipsstick plug looks similar to mine interms of the lock hahaha
👍
nice video, but the cold oil level (25°) is not visible, the hot level (90°) is not clear
Is it safe to drain transmission fluid and replace it with new fluid without dropping the pan? My question is , is this method any help at all. Thanks

@@MaxReviewss thanks pal
Very well kept car mate, I wish i had a garage to do some stuff aswell. Life is a bitch though.
Thanks mate, it's a pleasure to work on car in a right atmosphere and having the right tool, though not always the case.
Thanks mate for your positive feedback:)
What did you torque the torx bolts to?
7nm
(722.6) How many litres total 7.5 or 8 ?
Torque converter capacity ?
Drain pan capacity ?
Have shifting issues after fluid change.
Filled 4 litres after draining ( low or overfilled)?
C200, w204, 2009 model
What is the normal Mercedes transmission operating temperature?
4 liters did the job on mine, but you need to check the level afterwards for perfect function and gear change...
@MaxReviewss did you change the oil with the warmed up or cold?
Cold
Hi mate, has the gearbox been all good using the penrite oil ? Cheers
It is shifting perfectly now and no issue at all.

@@Thatplanecrazyguy Hi Mike, if you can next time change the filter and clean inside the oil pan too...it is really beneficial...

The level did not appear in the reading, you have to push the dipstick until the end or add more fluid.
Yes, push it all the way, easy to check the level.
How do you know you’re at 25c and 80c?
Use an infra-red thermometer 🌡
@@MaxReviewss thank you
you do it in P? or D/R?
Few times in D and R and finally check it in P.
