For its part, the update at Daimler AG is due to the division into:
– Mercedes-Benz (passenger cars and vans), retaining the same MB 229.xx standards, and
– Daimler Trucks (commercial vehicles), creating new specifications with the DTFR nomenclature, which will gradually replace the previous MB 228.xx.
In this regard, there is no technical difference between the two specifications, but simply a change of nomenclature.
The relationship between the old and the new nomenclature is as follows:
MB | DTFR |
228.3 | DTFR 15B110 |
228.5 | DTFR 15B120 |
228.31 | DTFR 15C100 |
228.51 | DTFR 15C110 |
228.52 | DTFR 15C120 |
228.61 | DTFR 15C130 |
The sectoral catalogues and labels of Olipes products are in the process of being updated to include the new names as soon as possible.
