[W126 Coupe] Transmission oil change

[Markus Meyer]

Its not that bad.  There's a drain plug on the pan, and a drain plug on the
torque converter.  You need to get the torque converter in position such
that the plug is at the bottom.  Drain both, then take the pan off by
removing all bolts.  Look for how much metal shavings are in the pan, if
there is a magnet in there.  Clean out the pan.  Replace filter and gasket,
put pan back in, replace drain plugs, replace fluid.
