Thats an old box going back to the early 90's, it cant be worth the hassle

honestly mate you dont know haw hard its been trying to get hold of a 722600 autobox the only one i have found the bloke wanted £1495 so asked him what planet he was on and left it as that so i am going to try for a couple more days then afraid to say but put the car up for sale

Just guessing here but a box that starts 201 part number is a 190 type box. These had a 102 4-cylinder engine & yours is a 111, so it may not fit. If it does fit, a 4 speed will be shorter than a 5 speed, so at very least you will need to modify your rear mounting, modify the selector & find a longer propshaft. Like Malc said, why go to the hassle + seriously de-value your car. Put up your location & someone may have seen one crashed/breaking.

Hey I know where there is a c220 cdi 03 vintage I reckon the guy might sell the box, what is your car. he has sold the leather interior, and used frontal parts to repair another car, the engine is still with the car although he did use the front pulleys etc for his damaged car

my car is a 1997 c230 if the box would fit and its a good price that would be brilliant

yes mate i have tried them mercman was very expensive and wanted my old box aswell and because the car is going to be done by a garage i cant get the old box out prior and not tried the others and the MOT has just gone on my 300E pitty the engine and box is too big as they are both strong as a ox

 

[c230marty]

will this box fit 722618

It needs to be the right box to get the correct ratios and torque loading.

Put your VIN into the Russian decoder to find the correct one for your car then look for that one.

I would've thought the cheapest option might be to get yours rebuilt, depending on what's wrong with it.
