[Silverado]

Hi all, I've been viewing this great forum for a while and now I've registered, I drive a mint 1994 C280 which is a great drive. Please answer this one for me; the auto selector lights up when the lights are on but there doesn't appear to be a light to highlight which gear is selected. Should this car have that facility (like every other auto I've driven) or is this another MB quirk to keep me on my toes driving in darkness? Thanks in advance.

Hi Silverado. Welcome to the forum.
If it's like mine, the illumination simply allows you to see the gate sequence just as you would in daylight.

Hi, thanks for the speedy reply, mine does just that but forces me to feel for the correct position, not good if you're working to close tolerances in the dark. I don't see the logic,cheers.
