I used the $2 Oil Sucker on my old Cadillac and Blazer, sucker hose went
right down to the bottom of the pan and cleaned it out very well. Don't
know if the sucker tube can get down to the bottom of the Benz trans, or
if the filler tube goes to the bottom (I seem to recall it does not,
from when I changed fluid on my car).
It does work well on the power steering pump, brake reservoir, etc.

I've used the top-sider method to get most of the transmission fluid out
prior to dropping the pan. The mess is minimized that way.

Subject: [MBZ] Topsider for AT??
Howdy --
Is the Topsider appropriate to use for removing ATF from a 722.1 AT?
Since MB stopped putting drain plugs on the AT oil pans it tends to be a
little messy to loosen/remove the bolts and crack the pan enough for the ATF
to run out. I was thinking I could vacuum the ATF out then go under the car
and remove the pan, replace the filter and drain the torque converter.
Sound like a plan? Or will the topsider not work in the AT for some reason?
