Check your PM. I just explained it to you. Extract it from the tube on the passenger side with the thin tube that comes with the pump. Get everything out and measure the fluid you are taking out by reading the level on the pump. You can than fill it back up with Synthetic Oil (Mobil) in the cap on the top of the engine.
Good Luck!

dude, YOU SAVED THE DAY!!! thank you so much. Everything went smoothly afterwards, i pumped it 'til I was pumping air.
I broke the cap on the passenger side, the one that say's "MB WORKSHOP ONLY", but that's probably only $20 or so, and the cap still seals.
FISH, thanks again man!!!

sorry i took a while to respond.
I did pump out the engine oil (i have driven the car ~200 miles since) and checked the oil level 'bout times already. I took out the tranny cap coz you you said take it out too while pumping the oil out. I pushed the tab in and the cap won't come off so i pulled the tab and i broke the cap, it still seals fine, but is no longer idiot-proof.
