Hello all, Ok I have a new problem that has me baffled so I wonder if any of you nice folks out there can help me. I have a C350 3.5 and I have started to notice that while I'm driving the Sport Mode comes on by itself from Economy mode. The light on the Sport switch illuminates and the S...

Just been given a rough estimate to change the gearbox oil. Over 3 Hours and £300/400 cost. just thinking out aloud, does it take this long to change the oil? Lexus Birmingham. For a LS400.

Lads what gearbox oil is recommended for my two w203 cars. One is 2 liter and other is 2 liter compressor. Maybe same oil. Anything else like filters etc. New to Mercedes. Had bmws for past 10 years Sent from my 5056X using Tapatalk

What are the tell tale signs that gearbox oil needs replacing. I have a 61 plate C250 S204 (67k on the clock) that I've had approx 3 months now. I sometimes find the gear changing a bit lumpy and not smooth like my friends E220. I don't know the service history of my car (not available when I...

Just stripped the parking brake motor gearbox on my w221 anyone recommend the type of grease for the plastic gears, silicon grease looks like it is generally good for use on plastic gears, can anyone confirm this, thanks

Evening all, Long time reader, first time poster. Spent a lot of time browsing the forums prior to buying my first MB, and became the proud owner of an '04 S211 E320 a few months back. The car is brilliant, but over the last month I noticed a vibration under load, which thanks to this...

I've got a genuine Merc Gearbox Dipstick that I don't need anymore as I've sold the car. I used it on my 2006 CLK 220 cdi sport, should work with any 722.6 Gearbox I think but check the part number. It's W140589152100. After £15 + p&p or collection from West Bromwich Thanks James

Hey guys I need to replace the conductor plate and electrical connecter on my dad's auto gearbox. Any one know the torque spec for the valve body bolts to the transmission and the oil capacity of the transmission? We don't have the service manual Bw Sam Edit: NB if I drain the torque...

I have a w203 with 722.6 gearbox. Overfilled with oil. I'll drain and check in the next few days. The 13 pin connector was full of oil and I will check the tcm harness later.

Hi guys Sorry for the very long post but I'm hoping someone can help me out with gearbox issues I am having. This all started a few months ago when I sent my w212 e250 into a Mercedes specialist for a service and automatic gearbox fluid change. I had previously done some research into the...

Hi The engine managment light came on a couple of weeks ago, cleared the fault but it came back on again, had it plugged into star and component y3/8s1 selection range sensor is defective is the fault, car is driving fine at the moment, any ideas?

I'm struggling to confirm how often the fluid in the 7g autogearbox on a r172 should be changed. I've just acquired a 350 registered August 2011, with 24,000 miles. And although I have a copy of the digital service record up to June 2015, (it is not clear if it was serviced in June 2016), I...

Hi Guys, Got a 83 Mercedes 307D LHD Hymer motorhome with a cracked gearbox casing. Sourcing another gearbox for it. The current gearbox is a 711.112. I've got the opportunity to buy a 711.110 box. Does anyone know if this will fit direct onto my hymer? And what is the differences...

I'm 38, and if I think back to cars when I was growing up, all cars had were a steering wheel and a fm stereo. The progression since then is huge. Will the next 30 years see the Petrol/Diesel engine gone, along with manual transmission, and if so, will you miss it? Sent from my iPhone using...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum having only owned my E280cdi 2009 estate for a couple of months. On the whole I'm pretty happy with the car but it does have a couple of issues. Firstly. Although it has full MB dealer history it had only had 1 gearbox service done at 45K it's now done 110k...
