cvt

Hi guys, I recently had the dreaded CVT failure on my 2007 b200 at 90500 miles. I have a warranty direct warranty on it and took it to a gearbox rebuilder. They opened up the CVT and found there was metal contamination, the ECU had failed and the cones were scratched. WD decided it was a new box...

So the CVT on our W169 A200T finally gave up altogether!...I've been living in fear that day would come! I’ve just got the car back after having the Gearbox and Torque Convertor completely rebuilt, so I thought I’d post the findings for others who may find themselves in a similar situation, as...

I am currently in dispute with the garage I bought my W245 from. I got the Transmission fault error message on the dash etc and took it back to them to check. They have said that it could be one of the three listed below but they would not know until they dropped it out 1. ELECTRONIC PLATES...

Hi I am hoping you can help me. I have a B class and its started making this whining noise which increases as the revs increase. You can't hear it when at idle in drive but as soon as you set off it gets quite loud. It sounds as though it's coming from underneath the car. No warning light are on...

Hi, just want a little advice on the 1.5 A160 CVT. My mum and dad currently have a nice mk 5 golf with the DSG box but they are thinking of buying a smaller car and have been and looked at this car at our local garage Mercedes-Benz A Class 1.5 A160 Avantgarde SE CVT 5dr As I have read...

Hi guys. We've just bought a 2009 B180CDi with almost 40k on the clock so the first transmission service is due. I do most of my own servicing as long as it doesn't require specific tools or software. I've got the genuine filter, gasket and 4 litres of the fluid (it holds 6 but...

Although I would probably prefer an auto there are not so many about. Also I've read conflicting views on CVT. I would welcome advice on CVT for example - If there are problems ( depends on the problem ! ) can it be repaired ? If not, how much could I expect to pay for a new auto...

Since I started looking for a 2010/11 B200 auto, I have come across a few threads on different various forums, relating to the gearbox going bang sub 40k miles! The plan is for this to be the family car for a few years and then keep it as a second car, but with the ~£6k repair costs I've read...

This may seem like a really dumb question, and probably is! Can anyone tell me if the belt inside a CVT transmission will turn if you have the car in ‘Park’ and you gently rev the engine? I have a faint whining sound when driving at low speeds (up to 20/30 mph). It’s not loud and I’ve...

I have run screaming from a VW with failing DSG (google it) to a manual C class. Now my other half needs to run away from her Auris with failing MMT (yes google that too). She would like a B class but only drives autos, I have that sinking feeling, is it going to be another fiasco? I can...

We test drove a 2007 A160 CDi CVT yesterday and we both thought it was the ideal car but... I also took my bluetooth ODB reader and saw the following codes; One was about an open circuit on the 02 sensor (I can't recall the exact code), I've asked the dealer to look into it. The other was...

Hello Guys I have a W169 CVT petrol 2005 and I have noticed a peculiar problem that happens every now and then. It tends to happen at low speed, either when setting off on a roundabout or after negotiating a corner. Basically the car jumps several times, the engine seems to momentarily race...

Hi all, On our W169, the manual mode stays in 1st gear if the gear-shift is moved right(+). Another shift to the right(+) it goes back to (D). On the ML, I can change the gears 1-4. Is this normal, while the vehicle is stationary? Has any other W169 owner had a similar issue and is this...
