There are no shift buttons or paddles on the steering wheel at all so it would need to be a new install of them...
Whilst it's in my head, and getting the W202, I bought back to good condition both inside and out... or at least usable and tidy.
My 5 Speed Auto, will let me change from Park, into Reverse without my foot on the brake? However it won't let me take the key out in anything but Park, so I know...
Hi, for a while now when i change from park to drive or drive to reverse etc the revs will drop for a couple of seconds, the car shakes then it kicks into life and lunges into the direction i want. It almost feels like it wants to stall. It doesnt happen all the time but is noticable when it...
Hi, I have recent bought a 2004 c class estate avantgarde, with the alloy type trim. The section around the auto shift, is dented and scratched by the previous owner. Is there anyway to replace this section, and can anyone tell me where I can buy this part from??
Many thanks:doh:
Does anybody know who sells this wood shift knob with the chrome Mercedes emblem for a W124? I got it 4 years ago on Ebay but don't see the same one with a Mercedes emblem anymore.
Hi guys, not entirrely sure this is the right place for this as its transmission related, but seems to fit better in here....
I'm about to take the plunge on a 2005 C350 SE Auto Coupe but as you all know, when buying second hand your kind of limited in the options dept, to what the original...
I have read many of the threads regarding lumpy gear changes etc. but have not found one that meets my experience with the car.
Basically the gear change is quite abrupt when changing up at speed or when the car changes down.
If you press hard done on the accelerator, it goes down the gears ok...
My C43 is fitted with the Racelogic Switchlogic Gearbox controller system, but unfortunately, it no longer works.
The system has buttons for changing gear on the reverse of the steering wheel which are meant to be engaged when the car is switched from summer to winter mode (on the...

I got this on Ebay from a guy in Germany that listed it as from a W140 model, and in fact the part number on it is 140 267 04 10 but the shift pattern is wrong for my 1995 S280. On my car, 1st is up to the left like on U.S. 300E models. I never imagined there would be more than one shift pattern...
