You can add fluid to the diff., but you are still faced witht he issue of a leaky differential.

The $1,500.00 quoted by the dealer is about right -- for a dealer that is.

Have you tried looking for a good and trustworthy indie in your area?

That may be your best solution in the long run. If the leak is serious enough (many of the W210 have "weepy" diffs., but a leak is more serious) it should be attneded to as soon as possible -- replacing a diff. can be very expensive.

Good luck.
