Finally, do you know what the small red plastic cap is the access to?
It is located at rear of the engine near the bulkhead.

No, I'm afraid not, but it's an interesting exercise to guess at it. The auto-trans dipstick perhaps. Since the car I have is 15 years old, I can't say for sure. But IME, MB haven't seemed to change the basic layout for the last 30-odd years.

So, the power steering pump is still where it was, and I presume the Red cap you mention still serves the same function.

I could be wrong, Karl here could tell you, as I think the later trannies had a more complicated level checking method.


Cheers,
