Smile 760 GLE Which engine B280E or B280F??

Anybody shed some light as to which engine is fitted in my 760GLE? Trying to find out which atf to buy as it lists 3 different types of auto box and dont want to buy the wrong stuff as we are flushing the system out following a contamination so it gonna be expensive as it is without putting the wrong stuff in!!!! Cheers stu

Do you have an overdrive button? If so, you have an AW70 or 71 box.
Engine type shouldn't affect which ATF you use, only the box type.
If you have a catalytic convertor, then you have the B280F.

You need ATF Dexron IID or higher.
