engaging

Hello everyone. I have a 1998 A160 W168 with an automatic transmission (722.7). Ever since I bought it a year or so ago it has had a problem with the reverse gear. When selected, it will engage fine when the engine is cold, but then it only engages after a delay when the engine is running hot...

Sometimes, if I shift to neutral when waiting at traffic lights the box does not want to engage drive when it's time to set off. I move the lever to 'D' but nothing happens, though it always engages eventually after a bit of shifting the lever back and forth after about 15 seconds or so...

Last couple of days my supercharger wont engage. It was working perfectly before, and then I got in the car the next day and nothing. I have driven it several times since and the supercharger has not engaged once. Will be getting the car checked out by a garage this week to read codes but...

Hi My c200 (1999) has started to jerk when from cold it is put into D or R. However, it doesn't always do it. Could this be wear in the drive couplings? Or low fluid? It drives fine otherwise Cheers.

my car will not change to 5th gear. What are the possible causes for this? I found a thread somewhere , that stated to loosen the throttle cable by a turn. should i try this? regards Boomtings

I have a 2001 270cdi manual and have great problems getting 1st & 2nd when cold. After a few miles it is fine. Any ideas

When the car's in Neutral and I go to Drive and accelerate there is a delay before it drives. I had a gearbox oil leak which has now been repaired and instructed the specialist to top it up again as expected but was wondering if its been topped up enough. Does this sound like a low fluid level...

Guys, Just had the codes read from the ECU on my 320 coupe. A/C Compressor clutch not engaging came up.. Funny thing is I haven't tried the A/C for about 2 months now so did not really notice anything. Anyway, I tried pressing the EC button as per normal - light goes out but no cold...
