Important bits from the video:
- The car should be in neutral
- The drain plug should be tighten to 10Nm for 8mm hex screw
- There is a procedure of refilling the torque converter from the drain pan. Procedure in the video.
The video is of a 722.9 transmission which is a seven speed. I just completed a rear main seal replacemenet in a 2005 Mercedes CLK 500 with the Crossfire sister engine M113 with the 722.9 transmission. NO DRAIN PLUG ON CONVERTER. As the fellow in the video states the older models do not have the drain plug. The Crossfire will not have a drain plug on the 722.6 transmission. If you want to flush the converter read the first post in this thread. It tells you how to do it.
