Air Filter and Tranny ??
What brand would you replace the stock air filters with. I think I will stay with paper filters. I am not real interested in $160 from the dealer.
Also
Is the AMG transmission a sealed unit. I do not find a dipstick. I do not yet have a manual for my 2002 clk 55 amg. This is why I ask. What is the suggested fluid change interval??
Thanks

Air filter: I use WIX or go with a K & N as I did.
Tranny: Never service? MB says so. I say do fluids and filter including draining the torque converter, every 60K. The DEALERSHIP Should do this service for about $160. Do the Rear Differential gear oil too. Your car will last longer, for sure.

You can order the dipstick at e-bay. And leave your AT Fluid change to the pro.
AT Fluid change interval is between 50-70K miles.
