MB 236.17

Approval MB 236.17 is a technical specification from Mercedes‑Benz for automatic transmission fluids, developed to ensure stable viscosity, high oxidation resistance, wear protection and optimal friction coefficient in modern gearboxes. It is used in passenger and commercial Mercedes‑Benz models equipped with 6‑, 7‑ and 9‑speed automatic transmissions (e.g., 7G‑Tronic, 9G‑Tronic) with electronic control and integrated clutch packs. The specification requires compatibility with transmission seals and filters, as well as cooling systems, allowing long‑term operation without loss of efficiency. Since MB 236.17 concerns only transmission fluid, requirements regarding SAPS, DPF or catalysts do not apply. When selecting XENUM oil that meets this approval, you receive a product that complies with the original Mercedes‑Benz requirements and provides smooth gear shifts, reduced energy consumption and increased transmission reliability.
