STILL Reading? Good for you! It means you want to do the job RIGHT! Here’s some more info for you…

The Mercedes 7G tronic gearbox / 722.9 transmission was introduced in 2003. Early cars DID NOT feature an accessible torque converter drain plug, meaning your Mercedes auto transmission service will be limited to about 5L because you won’t be able to drain oil from the torque converter. Not sure when this changed, but follow the video and look for the access port!
There is the possibility of two Mercedes torque converter drain plugs 8mm & 10mm. The torque converter plug tightening torques are 10nm and 15nm respectively.
If you can drain the oil from the torque converter on your Mercedes, you will get another 2L out.

You’ll need a mini torque wrench like this one to do the job right:

It’s a good idea to replace the torque converter drain plug, the Mercedes Auto Transmission is sensitive to oil level!
