Filter, pan gasket, and the ATF fill adapter for a Mercedes 722.9 7G-Tronic service, so you can drop the pan and refill through the fill plug in one kit.
This is the hardware side of a Mercedes 722.9 (7G-Tronic) fluid service for the owner who already has fluid on the shelf: an aftermarket transmission filter, a one-piece pan gasket and the threaded ATF fill adapter, sold under part number AMP355. It replaces Mercedes filter numbers 2202770695, 2202770395, 2212770095 and 2212770195 and covers a long list of 2004-2018 cars, from the C300 and E350 to the GL450, ML350, S550 and SL550. If you are pricing a dealer service or chasing a firm shift on a high-mileage 7G-Tronic, this is the cheapest way to do the job properly at home.
The 722.9 filter hangs under the valve body, where the pump draws fluid out of the pan. Every bit of clutch lining and fine metal the clutches shed passes through it before it can reach the solenoid valves on the electrohydraulic control unit. The filter neck seals into the valve body with an O-ring, and if that seal does not seat cleanly the pump can draw air, which shows up as noisy, slow engagements. The fill adapter matters because this transmission has no dipstick. Mercedes fills it from below: the adapter threads into the drain opening in the pan, fluid is pumped in, and the overflow pipe inside the pan sets the final level once the fluid reaches the specified temperature.
Before you order fluid to go with this kit, find out which oil your transmission takes. Mercedes Star Bulletin S-B-00.40/89d says 722.9 units built up to June 21, 2010 use red 236.14 fluid, later units use blue 236.15 (or 236.16 with some engines), and the two must never be mixed. The 2010 change also brought a revised pan and overflow pipe, so look at the drained fluid color and the pan shape. Later cars can use our Shell ATF 134 FE 236.15 fluid. Our 722.9 filter and pan service guide covers the full procedure and what a pan drop does and does not change.
The kit is listed for the 722.9 in the W219/W221 family and in C-, CLK-, CLS-, E-, GL-, GLK-, ML-, R-, S-, SL- and SLK-Class models from roughly 2004 to 2018, depending on the car. Mercedes used more than one filter over that span, which is why four numbers are listed. Lay the new filter next to the old one and compare the neck and pickup before installing, or send us your year, model and VIN. This is an aftermarket kit, not a genuine Mercedes part. Other 722 parts are on our 722.6 and 722.9 collection page.
If you would rather buy fluid and parts together, the 722.9 service kit with 6 liters of red ATF includes everything here plus bolts and fluid. A drain and fill pump kit makes the refill much easier.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. It contains the filter, pan gasket and fill adapter only. Buy new pan bolts, since they are aluminum stretch bolts that Mercedes says must be replaced, and the correct fluid for your production date.
Red MB 236.14 for 722.9 transmissions built up to June 21, 2010, and blue 236.15 (or 236.16 with some engines) after that. Mercedes says the two must never be mixed.
Mercedes revised the 722.9 filter over the years. This aftermarket kit replaces 2202770695, 2202770395, 2212770095 and 2212770195. Compare the neck and pickup with your old filter before you install it.
Not properly. There is no dipstick or top filler, so the fluid goes in through the drain opening in the pan with this adapter and a pump, and the overflow pipe sets the level at 45 C.
A pan drop usually takes around six liters. Measure what you drain, and plan on more if you also open the torque converter drain screw.
