select

Could somebody please reassure me that if I accidentally select reverse from the stalk on the right hand side of the steering column at anything above virtually stationary, the box is not actually going to attempt to go into reverse!? Putting aside what a stupid place for it to go it is, the...

I have a C class with the Audio 20 system. When selecting wavebands I can choose FM/DAB but not FM or DAB separately. Am I missing something?

When I got my W205 the start/stop function was turned on however I have noticed that it is not as smooth as I thought it would be. You can feel a shudder and the car jolts when the engine turns on. It's more of a nuisance than beneficial. I have tried to turn it off n the agility select menu but...

I have an ML 320 that the Park Select Button on the Auto Gearbox Shift stick selector has stopped working. The gearbox works fine in all other respects but the only way to put the vehicle in Park at the end of a journey is to take the key out of the ignition. Is this a common fault, is there...

I started off today showing the radio channel in the multifunction display centre. I wanted to know if my style of driving was spending or producing energy. Delighted to find, among many others, the graphic screen that tells me just what I wanted and here it is. So which one did you choose...

Just recently started (see other threads) but it seems my car has started to select first gear rather than second when coming to a halt. Anyone know why this might happen? Makes life un smooth.

Hi On a 1997 CLK you can select Park, Reverse, Drive. Car drives fine, gearbox fluid fine and changes are smooth. However the shifter knob cannot be moved across from D into 4. It just wont move Any ideas why this could be? thanks Derek

Hi everybody, I went to see a 1995 e320 coupe today and noticed that the gear would go into drive but wouldn't go across into the lower gears; there is a black object which obstructs the gears to go down. its something i noticed on another car and was wondering what this problem was. I have a...

...I know the answer is RTFM but I am away from work, no manual and want to listen to something on a long journey tonight! My W220 with Command has an Aux socket in the glove box, I have a connector cable, but no obvious way of selecting Aux. Is there a button staring me in the face that I...

Not sure why it's suddenly occured to me, but I suddenly have to know why the gear shift on the ML is on the steering rack when all other MB's (to my knowledge) are in the normal place by the centre divide? Anyone have the answer to this? It is useful having the space in the middle free of...

As per title... any idea guys? Does it make any difference to the suspension or does it just dictate at how many revs the engine changes gear at?

I have purchased a C180k 2008 however I think that I must have the wrong stereo manual. I have an audio 20 owners manual but my stereo looks different. In this manual to select 'aux' you have to hold in the CDC button for longer than 2 seconds. However my stereo does not have CDC button. I...

Ive been away for a few weeks, took the car out this morning, and theres a problem selecting gears. I drove a few miles, everything fine, I selected reverse, and reversed into a parking bay, then tried to select drive, but the direct select would not move from reverse. I turned off the...

Anyone know of/about them? They've got a nice-looking W202 C240 and I'm tempted to make the trek. Any background info would be nice. TIA, David.

I have a 1999 E300 turbodiesel auto which drives spot on in D but physically wont select 4,3,2,1. You cannot move the stick past D, it is solid. Anyone heard of this fault before and will it cost me loads?? Andy

I recently noticed that when i go to switch the air con button on, on my W211, instead of the red LED going off, it flashes on and off for a few seconds then stays on permanently. In other words, it remains in Economy mode. I thought that this was perhaps this was due to the cold weather not...

Hi My 190 auto clunks and kind of, jerks forward a little when when i put it into drive. Is this normal? Or could a bush or mounting be worn? Also it can somtimes jerk into forth. Will changeing the oil make the change a lot smoother? Thanks, Stu :)

Hi. I've recently had the gearbox in my C180 rebuilt. Its a manual transmission. I've put it all back in, connected everything up and noticed I was unable to select 5th. I got back under the car, and when selecting 5th, the part that the selector rod on the gearbox connects to cannot rotate as...
