2000 ML430 Transmission Fluid change? Trans cooler lines?
 
Ok, I've read a lot of post that said not to change the fluid. I have 110k miles on my 2000 ML430. I think the transmission cooler lines might be leaking just a little bit... I can see the lines are a little wet, but not enough to drip onto the ground.

I want to make sure there is indeed no Torque Converter drain on a 2000 ML430? Anyone knows? Also, if no TC drain, how much trans fluid do I need to buy if I am replacing the line and draining the trans fluid?

I just don't want to buy 8 litres or fluid and only using 4 litres...

By the way, how much are the transmission cooler lines anyways?

On the late 99 & later Benzes their isn't a torque converter drain plug..
WE flush the trans cooler & lines after changing the fluid in the pan..

Remove the return line & catch about a QT of old fluid..

Total fluid needed will be around 5 qts that way.
