Hi

I posted previously about my valeo / g box problem. The garage i got the car from is agreeing to fix the problem (new rad, torque convertor & flush) from Merc directly.

question to you is, following a gearbox flush does anything else go wrong with the box? i've been informed that it should run sweet as a nut once it's fixed...

cheers

Nothing else ever goes, you will be OK, it will be a full flush as the torque converter is being changed, lets hope that they do not forget the cooler

i am also getting irratic idle also (in the brief time i've owned the car)... do u think it's related? engine almost cut out.. but then it was ok after short drive.

can't believe dealer prices though... 3k if i had to pay for rad / torque! just as well it's covered. good thing i've got a warranty with the motor... these merc parts cost an arm and leg as i'm learning..
