I believe I have placed my new transmission fluid in the wrong place. I am being told i put it where engine oil goes. I watched the video that is online. Would you please tell me where exactly it goes? All i see is one tube with a check stick in it.

Sure, the engine oil dip stick is yellow and has a ring on it with a dip stick connected and will be slightly in front of the transmission fill tube. Your car may or may not have a dip stick for the transmission. The tube for the transmission will be larger in diameter. If there is no dipstick for the transmission you can purchase one for Mercedes.

Please let us know how it goes, if you would like to upload a picture of what you are looking at to be safe we can help you further.

Best, Ken
