How to check OIL level SC?

Looked into the owner's manual: nothing about this topic...

I've been researching the forum and especially looked over this thread:

https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...oil-level.html

However I could not find where to check the oil level on the SC. Is this the little black plug on top in the up-left corner?

If so, how high should the level indicate to have enough oil in the SC?

Please let me know, would be valuable for all of us I feel. Thanks

There is no oil level indicator for SC oil. You open the plug that is on the front of the SC, empty the old oil and add new oil until oil starts coming out.
Here is a picture of the plug for you. It's where the torx wrench is.

Thanks so much for the response Lenin, really appreciated.

So I made a photo of the top of the SC, on the top left there is a little black cover. Where does this serve for? In the photo its in the middle
So the one with the little yellow dot on it....

It's for engine oil level. And to answer your next question, the car came from the factory without the dipstick.

Haha, I did knew this.. I check the oil level, coolant and tire pressure regularly. No problems or leaks, but always precautionary. Like to keep the cars in good condition and these are the most vital. Next to always warming up the engine/transmission and preliminary maintenance. Thanks for the pointers, appreciate it!
