Nobody?
I thought I read it here on a thread that removing this plug reveals the port where you stick a probe up and fill the transmission with the right level of fluid. If that is the case, is there a Porsche or Mercedes tool to go up that port?

IF it is triptronic and IF it is the port and as I understand it, when the trans fluid temp sensor is at a certain temp, the port is opened and fluid is allowed to drain out until it a a thin thread. No fluid? Add fluid into the fill hole, get the temp back up and open the port again.
