Drain torque converter
I am gong to change my transmission oil soon on my c200 kompressor. As far as I know this is a 722.6 gearbox, but it seems like the torque converter does not have a drain plug? What do I do? I read something about disconnecting oil cooling pipe and spin the engine for a few seconds, does this work? If not, what does?
And does anyone have a link for the correct dip stick on ebay?
Thanks in advance!

See the W203 Wiki. The transmission flushing procedure is there in 2 documents.

but they deleted it now, you might need to look elsewhere instead since you were replying to a post that was from back in 2013, so website links might not always be active anymore.

MBWorld Fanatic!
These days there lots of info online Youtube
etc.
But here's something I put together way back in the day.
I've heard people say they damaged the radiator at where the hose hooks up when re-attaching,
and also I'm sure part numbers have changed and would be different for the orings etc.
I didn't have any trouble with the metal hoses, and no issues putting the c clip back on,
but others did. Maybe order extra c clips. I've done it twice and once other with
fluid and filter only.
etc.
