gearbox

Hi, I've been offered a cheap W169 A200 with a gearbox issue that is more likely mechanical than ECU. It is in good condition, black, has cruise control as well as front and rear parking sensors. It's really high spec with sunroof, electric heated seats, Harmon kardon sounds. Sat nav and...

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...

I have managed to fry the gearbox on my 1982 500SEL. I have managed to source a 1989 box from a 560SEL, but having got the old box out, I see that there are a couple of differences on the connections and I want to make sure that I can proceed to make the change without any problem. The attached...

Hi Folks, My 2005 E270 is currently on just under 150,000 miles, and to my knowledge has never had the gearbox oil changed. My understanding is this should be done every 70k or so. I've spoken to Coverdale in Newton Abbot about getting it done. They tell me that aside from main dealers they...

Hi guys, I have a Mercedes W220 (2003, 3.7l, S-class, s350) On my way back from work. I noticed that when I put my car in drive there was a slight delay in a sense of the gear clicking in place to move off, I also noticed that when I try to put it in N or R also slight delays. Once I pulled...

Hi need some advice. I need to replace my gearbox, due to damage to mont on the case below propshaft. I’ve decided it will be a lot quicker to replace the hole box rather than repair it and the box has done around 386000 miles, it works fine I might add... but the question is what box do I...

Hi all, I've got a mk1 vito V220 Ambient with a suspect gearbox issue. I topped up the gearbox oil yesterday as it was nearly empty and now after about 3 miles drive when I stop it only moves slowly/eventually if I keep moving the gearstick. It's an auto too. Not sure if its still low on...

Hi Everyone, just looking for a bit of advice on an issue that came up today, before I take it to a garage to get looked at. 90 miles into a 100 mile journey, I was on the motorway in manual mode (e350cdi 2012), when the car changed up into 7th on it's own at about 50mph, and wouldn't change...

Hi Guys, New member here, feel free to point me in the right direction or let me know if I break any forum rules etc. I am looking for a replacement gearbox for a 1996 420, 4.8L Auto 4 speed. It is for a friend and customer who is in West Africa (so is the car) and the general google search is...

I have very recently purchased a A160 automatic (58) and have been told by a mechanic that there is a problem with the gearbox. I took it back to the garage under the 1 month warranty but they say they can't find anything wrong?! I am used to driving a bigger (V6 3.7L) automatic, so expected...

Hi all, Having problems changing gears in my Sprinter 2010 313 CDI. They are all a bit grindy but going down into second is a right bugger, really have to jam it in. Reverse and 1st are not quite as bad but still pretty rubbish. So far changed the oil and made it a bit better. Next on the...

Hi. This is my first post so apologies if this issue has been posted elsewhere! I’m a proud owner of a 2011 Mercedes C250 AMG coupe, absolutely love the car until yesterday. It’s an automatic transmission and for some reason after setting off in the car, it seemed to be choosing the wrong gear...

Hi folks, newbie he so please be kind! I was going someone can help with an odd problemi have with my 2010 CLC200 Kompressor auto... Occasionally, about once a month, after I've been driving normally in Comfort, I'll stop at lights then notice after pulling away that it's gone from "D" into "1"...

Hi Mercedes Peeps we've got an old Mercedes Vito 638 automatic which we've been nursing along with bits here and bobs there. We've been stuck for a few months without her as the Neutral position/Inhibitor switch needs replacing. We cant seem to locate one that's not a kings ransom from a main...

Hi, New to the forum, but I am running out of patience with a brand new E 350 coupe. It has the new adaptive 9 speed box, and is just really reluctant to pick up from a standstill. OK on rolling starts (in 2nd), but unless you give the engine 3000rpm, it will give a big pause before taking off...

Can anyone please point me in the direction of some infomation regarding the box located on top of the gear box between gear lever and tie rod links to gearbox. I only have a french copy of the manual and I am not finding much by my searches on google of anywhere else for that matter. I am...

Hi all, Only my second post so please be kind :) I've recently purchased a 2010 e350cdi saloon (231 bhp) After I got it, I noticed under heavy acceleration a kind of whine, it sounds like a supercharger if I'm honest, but it's only for about 2 seconds and it was when I was heavy heavy...

Hi, I've got a 2006 A170 that sometimes won't select drive (if I'm stopped) or slips out of drive into neutral at low speed - has anyone have an idea what is happening, and if it will be expensive to fix? Thanks in advance, Rhys

Hi All, New here and looking for some help/advice if possible. I'm a relatively new (Nov) owner of a 61 plate C Class Estate (C220 Sport) with Auto Gear Box. In late Jan, the car went in for a Service (Local independent well respected garage); I was aware that it was due for the...

Hi All, I bought my first Mercedes two weeks ago - a 2002 C200 Kompressor Estate. As I bought it from a garage, I've got a 3 month warranty. Sadly, it's already gone wrong after a week of driving. If I use more than 50% of the throttle, the car starts misfiring and then won't stop...
