- 1992 W124 300 TE auto pre-facelift: 2000 W168 A Class 160
Hi, During my working life I had something like seven W124 estates, all no problem; at about 60-80k per year, I decided to relive my time and buy another and have just been duped into buying a 300TE that has a faulty Auto gearbox. Apart from many smaller issues (drivers seat and tools missing etc) I found after the drive home (40 odd miles) I go to turn around in the drive and am stuck in a corner - reverse wont run. I did check the Trans oil when first looking at the beast and it was clean and possibly a little over the top, but reading some of the posts her I think I have a "pig-in-a-poke".
So another few hundred quid on either a used job or a rebuild. What's out there now-a-days?. I am in North Dorset
