New pan gasket, new nylon washers for the drain/dip stick, and JB weld on inside of drain thread thingy (thinking that the brazing was cracked, although it looked perfect).
The pan stays dry, but the drain/dip stick leaks... I am starting to think the dip stick tube is faulty! What the HEY? ![]()

Hi Ed,my 300D does the same thing.I get just a drip at the dipstick/pan bolt,had it before I did the tran service and it still leaks just a little(a spot the size of a quarter overnight).Maybe there is some bizzare MB way to install the pan and bolt,similar to the cam cover gasket(which is now leaking like a sieve on my car
