Hello new to this forum, i've got a C220D 1996 Manual, i've already replaced the gearbox in it last year because it was popping/not going in gear at times.
After 10/20k miles on the 2nd hand replacement box, i can feel the gearstick moving when in third, moving backwards trying to come out of gear when letting off the power, like the last box did, im assuming these are the first signs i'll get before it does pop out of gear after a few more miles.
What i'm wondering is if petrol gearboxes are the same as the diesel ones?...or will they fit? I know the C220D's have an amazing 95bhp so im sure the petrol ones will have the same if not more, so they gearboxes will be able to take it the same, im guessing?
Thanks for the help.
