I have text the garage. He said that when he rang the suppliers to order the fluid the numbers he gave them didn't mean anything to them. These were the numbers I gave him specifically stating it needed JWS 3324 not 3309 which is an older fluid.
He was assured by the supplier that it was the correct oil (auto trans D iii). And that he got them to check their databases. He said it is spec MB 236.9, ZFTE - ML09, 11b, 14b.
I have since rang the supplier myself and given them my reg and they are also telling me it's auto trans D iii (dexron 3).
I have text the garage explaining that he has been supplied the wrong oil and needs changing. Explaining that it is a dexron 3 oil for cars pre 2005 and that is requires AW1 3324 which is a lower viscosity fluid.
What a ball ache! No one knows what they're doing.
I've only text the garage as he's on holiday, but will expect him to rectify the problem. I have said that I am happy to provide the oil
