Hydro / SLS suspension fluid

[CraigS]

Needed to top up the SLS suspension on the W123 today and went to Imparts for it. Brand is Febi. Cost was a reasonable $10.55/litre. I have no idea of the MB price, however I have seen it on eBay for $55.00 for 3 x 1lt bottles, plus $10 postage, so if you are in need of a top-up, Imparts seems the place to go. They are in all states, and their national number is 1300 467 278.

A W123 with SLS?? I thought they only had standard springs?? Yes I get my oil from Imparts in Victoria. They are good, but sometime stuff up an order and it's time consuming to get it corrected. They can deliver to me as well. Because I'm in the trade (with an ABN), I can get it for $8.88 per litre. I just bought some and noticed that Febi have changed their packaging. I'll check the packs when I get home tonight, as I was wondering if it was the correct stuff and I wanted to ask for everyone's opinion before I used it....

Hey Mark, its been suggested to me that Mobil Delvac 10 was a suitable replacement (And it works well in a few other than intended areas)

Any idea what the viscosity of the SLS fluid is?

280CE. I think all the coupe's had SLS, and maybe it was optional on the sedans.
