Hi.
My 300 24v TE is reving between gear changes. Its also slow to engage into drive and reverse I assume this is why it flares. I've changed fluid and filter and although it feels better it still misbehaves.
The cars a Hughes TT and I'm pretty sure that a vac line is disconnected to provide firmer gear changes.
Its a 5 speed gearbox.
My questions are:
If this going to require a rebuild.
Can I replace my gearbox with any 722.5xx box. Or do I need the exact part number as a replacement.
Can I swap a 4 speed from a 320ce that I have in as a temp/permenant replacement.
Ive read that stand alone controllers exist that allow newer Mercedes 722.6 boxes to be also fitted. This seems like the adventurous path to go down.
Any advice appreciated.
