Have you checked your owners manual? There might be someway that you can check using the instrument cluster? Have you asked a Service advisor at your local dealership? I'm lucky that my 07 E63 has a dipstick, the newer cars they are doing away with them, as everything is checked via the cluster or display screen. My Audi is checked using the MMA screen. And it's a 2012, maybe the same with your car.

yea i have tried that, apparently the owners manual is wrong in saying back of engine passengers side cause mine is on the drivers side and the tranny is sealed so we cant check tranny only the engine so i was confused

I would definitely visit your local dealership, and have someone show you exactly where that dipstick is located. Because I've looked at your owners manual and it clearly show one, but not in the photos that you've provided.
