i have a topsider from my old MB (SL320), now i have a CLK55 Cabriolet with no "Dipstick" so where do you suck the oil out of? Anyone have a picture or diagram?
Even although you do not have a dipstick, the hole where the dipstick tube would exit the engine is still there but will have a plug blanking it off.
Turn the key to position 1, press the mileage reset button 3 times and you should hear a beep. Use the up down buttons on the steering wheel to scroll through the menus. You should be able to reset the service indicator from there.

I tried this on my 2004 clk 500 and it did not work did i do something wrong. ived changed the oil but i can not get rid of that service b exceeded warning

When you set your ignition key to position 1 (0 is the first position) you must use the steering wheel buttons to tab your display to the default, showing temperature only. [Otherwise it will display your last setting]
Now when you tap the reset button 3 times the display will show terminal voltage of your battery [eg, EB=12v]
Further tabbing will display the wrench and the message 'Service A (or B) in xxxx miles'
This is where the reset button will clear this message.
where exactly in the engine bay is this blank plug?
If you enlarge the 10th image on page 1 you will see the M-B 'measuring stick' (yellow handle) inserted into the dipstick tube. The red cap is lying alongside. That's the location on my M112 V6 engine.
I got mine from the M-B dealership. A bit pricey from there, but they are strong metal. I have read here that in the US you can pick up a plastic version from any auto parts store.
