transmission

Hi, I changed my transmission oil and filter last year. But today, I sent the car in again to change the transmission pan. They used the latest pan which is curved at the front. At the same time, they changed the oil and filter again. The mechanic could not find the Torque converter plug...

I guys, Your thoughts on the below would be appreciated. Ever since I purchased my C63 back in December, I have had judder from the transmission everytime I set off and slow down. Its from the wet clutch and is most obvious when in traffic, as you take your foot off the brake and let the car...

So here is the story... My 7 speed Mercedes used to have rough shifts (1-2 and 3-2) only when cold. From "cold", I mean when the transmission is cooled down like first start in the morning. I do not mean freezing temperature. I was away for 2 months and my dad drove the car meanwhile. He is...

Had the fluid and filters changed today (CLK W208) and though the gear change was fine before, it is now really nice and silky smooth :D Wanted to get it done because I don't know the service history of the car and judging by the quality of the old engine oil and filter, the transmission fluid...

Hi, My W220 S500 (7 speed automatic) was made in may 2003. So, I think that it has the outdated transmission pan. I think that there are several upgrades available including the pan which is slightly curved at one end. I recently replaced the oil, gasket and filter. I bought the gasket and...

The 722.6 5 speed automatic is adaptive and if you buy one that has been used by the archetypal little old lady, it will be in top somewhere around walking pace. This means that if you kickdown, the shift is lazy and it goes from fifth to fourth without arriving anywhere near a useful point in...

Hi guys maybe a silly question but how would I go about finding whether my gearbox has the latest software? Is it a star session or can you check via obd reader and say torque app? Thanks

Hello all Just brought my ’04 C55 up to scratch on the servicing front at 82,000 miles. It has a FMBSH but I work on it too. So I have just changed the spark plugs (made my own tool with the angle grinder onto a 17mm offset ring spanner – great tip and job’s a doddle with it), the valve cover...

I just had a C250CDI Coupe courtesy car for a week which was near enough identical to mine, even down to the colour :) The only difference was the automatic transmission instead of the manual one I have in my own car. Since I bought the car, I have always wondered if I had done the right...

Good evening, 3 months ago, I bought a 2004 W220 S500 with 80,000 miles on the clock. What a powerful car I must say. Engine runs great, overall condition is excellent. :rock: The only concern I have is the transmission. When it is still cold, it shifts very rough from 3rd gear to 2nd. So...

As above seeing a few ads which say Gearbox rebuild has been done, on the 211's how common is it for the gearbox's to require a rebuild? Are are they usually due to glycol contamination? what sort of mileage do the box's last till and what give it away the box is on its last legs?

Hi all, I have a transmission related whine. I was wondering if anyone else had any similar experiences or suggestions or knew of any common failure points. SLK 230K (R170) Auto, 03-plate, 85,000 miles on the clock. The pitch is definitely related to road speed, starting from below 5mph...

I have just purchased a 2nd hand E Class 250 SE CDI BLUEFF which was first registered in October 2011. It has 25k on the clock. Before I purchased the car I read an article in "Mercedes Enthusiast" magazine which said that it is imperative that the transmission oil & filters are changed every 3...

My car: 1999 C230K Sport Hello everyone, I have a question about a slight transmission kick when I'm coming to a stop and when I'm accelerating from 1st to 2nd. A little history about my transmission: Fluid was not changed at all until 130,000 miles At 130,000 miles, partial flush was done...

Hello, The transmission on my E320 CDI has started making a slight groaning/humming noise when in park and neutral. The problem is only noticeable when the car is cold and only in park and neutral. The gear change at low RPM is also a little clunky when cold. The car has 130K miles and a full...
