c220
I have a c220 sport desiel on a 96 plate,after you pull off the auto box does not seem to change gear when it should and reves high until it changes then it changes with a loud clunk,it has slipped into neutral once but the went back into gear, when this first started to happen you could make it change by sliping down a gear then back into drive and it would change gear but will not do this any more. checked the oil level of the box abd it is fine and clean.

Hope you can help me out!!

As eddiereilly posted above it must be the first thing to try, other than that it is a job for a box specialist.
