great tool
The Mercedes 722.6 Transmission Fluid Dipstick Tool is a great tool for checking the fluid level in your Mercedes transmission. It's easy to use and accurate.

Works 100% perfect on Sprinter Van
I have a Dodge 2007 Sprinter 3.0l Diesel with the NAG1 transmission. The stick worked perfect, EXACTLY like OEM at the Frieghtliner dealer, better than the one at the dodge dealer. I monitored temp with a Fluke DMM and temp probe secured to the pan with insulation for quicker reading. It is VERY critical to maintain the fluid level in the NAG1 trans, It only has a 6 ounce window which is very narrow. The trans is awesome but requires close attention for proper performance and longevity. I highly recommend NOT following the suggested drain intervals, you must use your opinion on how often to change the fluid. I found keeping fluid to the higher side of level eliminates RSN. Not over the high mark but close to or at the top. You must check at the proper temp to get accurate readings. There are charts showing proper levels at proper temp readings. Depending on your driving you might get 40k to 120k miles on the fluid. My city driving with short hauls requires 40-50k changes. Letting the fluid get brown or black will shorten life much quicker. I have seen original tranny's with 800k on them with proper fluid monitoring. Any more questions and info search Docktor A's NAG1 Alert or DARF fix for Rumble strip noise on this trans. Fluid to high or too low creates bubbles from cavitation which causes lots of problems. Using the wrong spec fluid is an early death sentence for this tranny, of which many ignorant dodge dealers have done. Yes its expensive but knowing you have the right fluid and peace of mind you won't be needing any tranny repairs for 300k ( when monitored properly) is very good compared to many other trans' on the current market which no matter how you check them wont last that long. You don't have to baby this trans either to get those big miles. Good Luck and thanks for a good tool.

Does not work for a 722.9 transmission
This tool is for a 722.6 and NOT the 722.9. My mistake assuming 722.6 was in my Mercedes, but the tool is made well and worth it for those who have the 722.6.

Mercedes Benz Transmission 722.6 Fluid Dipstick
Great buy! Shipped fast! Worked!I will admit that at first I didn't think it was correct for my Sprinter seeing as the dipstick does not go all the way into the transmission tub like a slandered transmission dipstick, but after adding enough transmission fluid using my new dipstick my 2500 has stopped hard shifting and throwing itself into limp mode. It was definitely worth it . Thank you KTCAUTOOLS!!!Side Note: I added fluid slowly over a few days to diagnose what amount the transmission felt best at. It is now 1/4 bellow the full line on the dipstick and my rig runs great!! I left it low because I'm still a bit skeptical about the dipstick not going in all the way...hence the slow addition of a 1/2 quirt at a time was applied.
