tronic

Hi All, My C220 is due its first 15k service in a couple of weeks and wondered if to mention to the dealer that the 7G tronic box sometimes holds on to gears to long and seems not to want to change up a gear? It mainly seems to be 1 to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd gear changes where the gearbox holds...

Hi! First post on the forum and just want to thank you all for a great site! Wealth of knowledge on all things mercedes. Ive just bought my second mercedes, a 2006 ml320 cdi, replaces my old ml270 cdi. (Great car except for the rot!) Im loving the 320, just one problem i was...

In my GL (2013) the gear selection process requires to move the lever up to engage (R) for reverse drive, and down to engage (D) for forward drive. Is it possible to reconfigure the software so that an up move of the lever select (D) and a down movement select (R)? many thanks in advance

Hi there, I have an '07 GL 320 CDI with 64,000 miles on the clock. I have started experiencing a problem with the gearbox which I assume is an electrical fault. When accelerating over 3500 rpm the vehicle starts jerking violently and it goes into a sort of "safe" mode where it won't allow me...

Hi, I'm from Lisbon, Portugal I own a 2006 E-270 Tdi with a 7G Tronic gearbox. Recently had mechanical problems and took the car to the dealer. It was diagnosed malfunctions in the "Gearbox's Electric Panel" and "Sparkplug's Control Board") The car has only 98K Km. It's parked in a garage. I...

Hi The question is asked in a different forum without success, so I give it another shot :-) C220 CDI BE 7G Tronic Plus – 06/2011 (31.000 Km) Should it, under normal conditions, start in 1st or 2nd gear ? My car is running much of the time with jerk/hard shift, and always 1st gear starts...

Standard mode-when coming to a standstill car jerks a bit. Comfort mode no probs When typed this issue in google,found that lots of cars with this tranny has similar "problems".Advise from web research was to get a software update done. What do you guys think?

is it possible to convert a non tiptronic gearbox to a tiptronic one. if it is possible what parts would i need and the cost. car is 1999 e430 preface lift model cheers

Well.. Had the car for a week and noticed a thump like sound as well as a little judder in the lower gears. Reading around the web I have found it maybe a number of things including a valve body? Oil change needed or a need for MB to update the software again. The car is back with the garage...

I've got an open order for a e200cgi coupe. I was expecting delivery in June (i ordered last november 2010... its a LOOONG wait!). Dealer called to inform me that mercedes have confirmed 7g transmission will be installed on all engines (including the 1.8) for model year 2012 and whether I...

Had a test drive in a SLK which had the paddle shift. When using the paddles on upshifting I could see the gear display going up 1,2,3 etc but on getting to 6 the next paddle operation displayed D. I was also watching the rev counter and in addition feeling the slight surge when shifting...

only recently ive been driving and its like my auto box wont shift the gear its in....when i put it into manual and force the change with the paddle shift it just keeps in the same gear. When i turn off the car and then turn it back on its fine again. Really starting to annoy me....anyone...

is there any up grades or mods for this system ?:bannana:

does anyone know if there are any software modifications to the 7g tronic gearbox so that the changes are faster in manual mode as there is a long delay at the moment when using paddle shifting. Better still is the new MCT box that is on the sl63 going to be available for the c63 any time soon?

just wondering maybe its me just being paranoid but i hear like a transmission whine when driving its sort of like a whislte that get higher pitched as speed builds up...image a jet engine at really low volume thats like the noise. Its barley audible but i wondered if anyone could diagnose what...

just wondered if all 7Gtronic gearboxes had gear shift leavers on the steering wheel?
