HiWhat is the mileage on the car? You are past the age of cars which were affected with the glycol contamination.
I would suggest its to do with the gearbox oil level being low. Has it ever had a gearbox service? Its probably around the time for when its due any way.
It has done 54,000 miles now.
thanks for the heads up on the glycol contamination (even though it's past cars that were effected...)
Not sure about a gearbox service... have been in touch with Mercedes Ipswich; they are having it in for a look see on this friday.
i'm a newbie to mercs, diesels and automatics, so all the homework i can do before then will probably stand me in good stead!
the car still has a year's warranty on it through Mercedes direct)
cheers!
