For others who are looking to execute this DIY, this is not a Mercedes gearbox like in the 996. This is a ZF gearbox and you can find the approved lubricant list here: http://www01apps.zf.com/kst464/ZF_InteroeleV2_manager/Work/2012-04-01/TE-ML%2011_en0700.pdf

The very last fluid "ZF LifeGuard5" is what I believe to be the factory fill. It is available pretty reasonably here: Transmission Fluid ZF LifeGuard 5 - Case of 6 x 1L Container

Thanks mate,
I did the diff oil later on, there is a write up on it somewhere else...
Best of luck :-)
