Yes he is one of the best in the uk
You said… what was the issue you had and what did they do for you?
The forum works best with knowledge of issues and how they’re resolved. Recommendations from brand new members with zero background can be viewed negatively without a backstory.

2008 s450
Hello all,

I have E250 Coupe, 2011 and have had an ongoing issue since i bought the car which is the car stalls when put into gear when cold. On a warm day its fine, once past the initial start its perfect, no issues at all.

I first got the gear box serviced, still remained, then the torque converter and the issue is still the same. You feed a massive shud and it stalls.

The garage then tried to do a few thigns to try and override a part of the gear box but it still remains. They're now saying it could be £2-3000 by stripping down the gear box and seeing what the issue is, money i dont have.

I was wondering if anyone had similar issues and what i could suggest to the garage?

Thanks
My 2008 s450 is doing this exact same thing. I'm tempted to repair it all myself, does this unit require programming with special tools or is it plug and play?
