im changing atf on my c 270 cdi 2001 w203 81k tomorrow evening(fri 16th) my mb deeler jct600 in Sheffield dose not sell them any more. I have got the atf,sump gasket&filter from mb.On inspection the auto box has no leeks.I have seen the threds of how to make your own,any advice will be appriceated

No, nothing to get excited about.... you may remember I posted before that I hadn't had to top up oil before? Well, MB advised me of the correct oil and I've put small amounts in at a time, so as not to muller the engine....(ML 3.7) I've so far put in 0.7litre. I've illustrated the level before...

I bought an ATF dipstick for my year 2000 E320 CDi. Does anyone know if this can also be used on a 1998 E300DT? Thanks, Peter.

Is it a bad thing that my dipstick always seems to be slightly out whenever i look under the bonnet? There doesn't seem to be any evidence of oil escaping and its only ever out as far as the bottom of the plastic moulding. The engine seems to have used oil but no sign of any leaks. I'm...

hi newbie to mercs altogether. just bought a 2002/3 220 cdi dont no if i have done right , i have a simple question someone out there may be able to tell me does it have a oil dipstick i see it as a warning on the computer if one runs low but i am used to keeping check on these things . its...

Could anyone estimate how much ATF fluid I will need to top up, from the current level at the red mark, to the correct level at the yellow mark in the attached picture. Level taken with engine hot, running and in neutral. The current level is very low, I must check for leaks under the car, I...

722.6 dipstick - part number anyone?

HI, I know I can check engine oil level at the dashboard, but is there an oil dipstick on this engine. I have found one dipstick in the engine bsy at the back offside, it has a sort of security clip locking it. I would like to check if the dealer has changed the oil before I collected the car...

This may seem a really stupid question. I Always like to check fluid levels etc on my car W124 and regularly perform oil changes myslef. But i have now gone and purchased an approved used W220 (04). So as i was becoming familiar with the engine I pulled the dipstick to find its only a short red...

Just had a 'B' on a c200K, the info thingy is reporting that the oil level is high. Dealer tells me its all measured so it will only be a couple mm at the most and 'this will burn off!!' Don't trust him and can't find the dipstick, don't have the manual either. Can someone point me in...

Took both engine covers off my 320Cdi this morning to investigate a diesel smell that has developed recently. Sure enough, very slight weep from the frontmost union joint off the common rail anf also third one back. No big problem, but off to the stealers it goes. Noticed that there is what...

I got the 5 speed auto box measuring stick a while ago along with parts to do the ATF change, part number 140 589 15 21 00. My query is that when I inserted it into the ATF tube to check current level of fluid the dipstick does not go all the way in. In fact there is a good 15 inches or so...

If any one has a tranmission dipstick would they mind bringing it to the GTG so i can check my transmission fluid level.C Class 250TD oil burner. Many thanks

Hi Guys The following is not meant to have sexual connotations, couldnt find any other way to phrase it though :o My dipstick does not click in nice and tight anymore. It looks like the rubber ring maybe worn down. No oil is letting by. Do I need to change the ring or does it matter if I...

CLICKED ON NEW TOPIC INSTED OF REPLY fudger is right,I don't agree with sealed for life gearbox oil either,if the box goes bang after 3 years because of dirty/bad oil,then merc won't pick up the tab for the replacement box. the dipstick is not under the sealed cap you are on about,but that is...

Does anyone know the MB part number for a dipstick for a late 1999 tiptronic auto gearbox? My stealer isn't being very helpful. I have read on other theads in this section that these can be purchased from MB. I want to check my oil level, and am contemplating changing it. My car has done nearly...

this might sound like a really stupid question but where the hell is the transmission oil dipstick. can someone tell me where it is. Also wot exactly does the HOT FLAP do?:) Cheers people

Hi Koolvin If you have any pics as offered, on showing how (black plastic cap) auto dipstick fitted to the early ('93) C-class unclips I would be very interested. It is probably obvious.......... but I don,t want to snap something off trying in ignorance! Regards Martin (1993 C220 Sport - 110k...
