Hi Chaps.
My SL500 R230 recently got stuck in park !!.
I have had my local Mercedes Dealer fix it for me but at a fair old cost.
It was the Gear Selection Module.
This part retails at £568 + VAT.
I have the unit that was taken off my car and have found a company that sells the replacement part that failed in my unit.
I was thinking I may repair the unit, and put it up for sale on here.
Would anyone think they may be interested in it
 
Ouch - shame you didn't get a bit of advice on here first. Was it the plastic bit that broke?
 
Do you use the handbrake or just leave the gearbox in park?
 
Yes

The part i got to repair the old units is aluminium
The aluminium part only costs £35 :eek:. A common issue on our SL's that doesn't need the whole GSM replacing.
