have a look here Vamps

Interesting link... :y I have had a reply on the Merc Forum, not sure if mine is 4 or 5 speed, on the over ride it suggests 4 speed by saying 1234, but a reply on that link suggests it is a 5 speed, I think it is 4, must concentrate in the morning and try and count, but changes are not always so obvious...... :-\ :-\ ::) ::)

Reading through the Mercedes Forum there seem to be a lot of issues with their auto boxes, mostly electrical.....Don't hear that on OOF............ ::) ::)

Usually caused by the o-rings in the pilot bush leaking and allowing ATF to flood the electrics. A cheap (£20 iirc) and easy problem to fix. :y

It's (hopefully) still sat on the carpark at MB Preston  :( :( I'm waiting for the V5 to come back from Swansea showing its new/original registration number before I can collect it.  :'( :'( :'(

That is the problem with private plates, minimum time should be a couple of weeks though, in the meantime  I guess you are feeling like a little boy at Christmas....... :D :D :D

On the Thursday before Good Fri, I went to Liverpool to look at a car, liked it & put a deposit on it. On the following Tues I got a phone call to say that of all the hundreds of cars they had on site, a bloke broke into the office found & stole the key to the only R class on the compound, cropped the lock on the gates & stole 'my' car.
And now MB of Preston have had my deposit for a fortnight while the car's paperwork gets sorted out.  :(

If the numbers beside your gearstick read - 1,2,3,4,D - you have a 5 speed. ;)
