Does anyone know if the 722.6 tranny is particularly prone to leaks? I just bought a 98 E300D. Only 73k miles. According to the dealer, the tranny was resealed at 35k miles. Got it up on ramps for the first time this morning....noticed a bit of ATF on the belly pan.

Ordinarily mild ATF leaks don't concern me. But with this sealed for life crap, I guess I now have to buy the measuring stick and breakable tabs for the cap. Oh well.

Other than the tabs and the measuring stick, is changing the fluid and filter and different than on the 722.4?
