Mercedes 722.9 7G Failure Prevention Part 4: Warning - Fluid Drain Surprises!

Fluid is red on early versions. I will show you 4 draining phases and what comes out, and I don't even open the torque converter. For DIY transmission service kits CLICK HERE: mercedessource.... PLEASE NOTE: This is a 2004 transmission that has been upgraded to the newer pan and filter. You will recognize the green fill plug.

The TH400 in my 1971 Riviera did NOT have a drain plug... What a mess.
Thanks for the inspiration and keep on trucking!

Hi . I am looking at buying a 2007 CLS 500 . Problem is ,it get stuck in 1st gear. What could be the issue?

[@phillipandreou3843]

What happen to the W/108/109's you have repaired in the past? Owner kept it? You sold it? You kept it? :)

[@Mercedessource]

Why do you ask?

[@phillipandreou3843]

[@Mercedessource]

I will be selling my 1972 W109 300SEL 4.5. That is the last 108/109 that I have. You can contact me via email. [e-mail]

Some Auto transmissions have little balls in the valve body that can, and will, fall out when you remove the valve body I hope there are none in this trans!

[@Mercedessource]

No worries here...

it's not Kents 1st picnic 😅

[@sefarian9355]

@@Mercedessourceno worries here ? Does this transmission have ball bearings

[@boigoe]

Hi shouldn't the upgraded pan need the blue fluid

[@Mercedessource]

No. You are just changing the pan and filter, not the transmission internals.
