Is there an engine oil dipstick for s600 biturbo motor 2003?
My s430 and cl500 have actual engine oil dipsticks , but my new 2003 s600 just has a red cap where the dipstick should be
can I just use my dipstick from these other cars in my s600?
do the s600 cars use a "dipstick tool" for the engine oil, like we have to use a dipstick tool for the transmission? Or is there a permanent engine oil dipstick I can leave inserted all the time ?
This is the biturbo v12. If you have one of these cars please let me know - the older nonturbo v12 might be different
i ssw some on eBay such as item number 181710619533 but it says it's only for the nonturbo v12- wondering if the turbo v12 uses a different kind
anyone have the correct part number for the turbo v12 Dipstick ?

I think there is a special tool you must use specifically designed for the M275 engine, and you cannot leave it inside the engine.

The M275 does have a slot for the dip stick, but mine is blocked off by some sort of metal (maybe previous owner left it in there and it broke inside)

'94 SL600,'05 SL600,'06 S65,'07 E63,'14 E63S,'09SL600 all sold, ‘15 S65,‘18 E63S,'17 SL65, '17S65Cab
Am I missing something here? All the V12 biturbo's I have owned (4) read and display the oil level from the menu in the instrument cluster. Access it with the buttons on the steering wheel. Never needed a dipstick.
