hi

Finally my jerky shift (only when it is cold) gearbox failed. It happened when I was stopped in a junction then tried to pull off but no power. It feels like the gear stuck in neutral, no power in D 2nd nor 3rd but I can do reverse. The engine and everything still running perfectly as usual, ATM oil changed 3 months ago and the car has full service. Before getting it to dignose by specialist or MB dealer to face a big bill, i wish here someone could give some advice. otherwise it will be sold as spare and repairs since i wont be able to afford to recondition the gearbox.

Get the codes read......sounds like a speed controller plate failure.

If it is the controller plate failure, you dont need a new gearbox, but the plate replaced which is under the sump.
