Nate,
No, I didn't get any decent pics this time. The spot in the tranny where the modulator goes is just out of sight, up in between the tranny and car body, so hard to get a good view, and bad lighting.
I drove the MB to work and back and still don't smell ATF, so I think I'm good. I'll check under the car next weekend, or thereabouts.

Today I removed my new shift modulator, and the O-ring was stretched out of shape, not sure why. I replaced the O-Ring and re-installed the modulator. That sounds so easy, it's a bit of a pain to push in, under the car. The new style doesn't have a set grove for the O-ring, which might be the issue, so be careful installing. I bought a few O-rings just in case I screwed another one up.
I'll test drive and see how it went. Before, I could smell the ATF, and knew it was leaking.
I've gotten used to just driving my '90 toyota pickup truck around, while the MB has been having issues, hopefully my MB will become my daily driver again. The truck has more miles than my MB, 267k to 234k, so always happy when it passes smog.
