Hi all,
I have recently bought a 2002 c270cdi automatic which ran fine and is in really good condition. There now appears to be an issue selecting gears. Once into drive the car will go no issue and move up and down gears but will with no warning stick in a certain gear. Even when using the triptronic it will eventually stick in either 1,2,3 or 4. It will not let me put the gear into park unless I turn off the ignition, and the panel on the dash also sticks on whatever gear the car was in. When I turn the ignition off, it will let me select park. Now, it has also started not showing a gear at all on the dash but will let me select D,R & N but not go back into park from here.
Has anyone any ideas before I bite the bullet and go into a dealer? I hadn’t really noticed if it had done it before but I had to pull into the hard shoulder today as driving onto the motorway the car wouldn’t change out of 2nd gear.
First post on this forum too so apologies if it’s in the wrong place.
Thank you
