Your cars transmission has a dipstick that is way too long to be left in place. Your engine does have a tube for the dipstick but not a dipstick, However MB have it as a tool.

I dont know if its the same as the old V6 and V8 dipsticks which is a length of cable with a plastic piece on the end.

But you can always find out at the dealership.
