Trans Fluid (at)

How do you add fluid as there's no way it goes in through the dipstick(03 CLS)?

you can add fluid through the dipstick with a very small funnel. Or you can add through the fill hole on the very top of the transmission.

10mm bolt on top of trans but if you are still on the orginal trans then there is most likely an oil jet kit installed there

Yes, you do as with almost all transmissions. The service interval is in the owner's manual. I would follow that if you have a 6 speed. As for a auto, I run my own special intervals.
