Hi,
I have developed a sudden problem with transmission on my CLK 270 cdi. My car skidded into a curb at about 25mph, its seemed fined but I could hear whistling from the gear box. After switching off, and restarting after five minutes, I was at a junction and the car completely lost power. I can engage P,N,R,D, however D does not remain engaged for once the car is revved to just over 1100rpm, thus the car is not really moving.
I will be called my mercedes specialist on Monday, but does anybody have any idea of what this may be, cost implications, etc.
The car has never had a gearbox oil change, It has just completed 100000 miles. It is a 2003 53 Mercedes Benz W209 CLK Avantgarde 270 cdi.
I do not have technical knowledge to inspect myself, please can anybody shed light on what this problem may be?
