Is the gear faulty or something?

here is what played out ;

So, my car (Cla 250 2016 ) battery died from sitting idle for two weeks, and after jump-starting it, the car won't go out from park. As a matter of fact it been stuck in park for the last 3 days now , So I called a mechanic , but the Guy is telling me it's a transmission ism issue. Honestly, I'm just so confused right now.


So I had to take the car in to one Mercedes repair center and they gave me that bill

I am not a conversant with benz though. But the first thing you should check yourself is if when you press the brake, does the lights come on, some face that issue where the brake sensor isnt making the gear to shift.

But for me, you have an electrical issue which can point to the problem if you can get a workshop with the right diagnostic machine, they can check continuity in the wires, check the necessary fuses, test the TCM modules to pinpoint your issues. A valve body wont stop the gear from not switching from park or neutral.

get a 3rd opinion and ensure an part replaced is handed to you because i smell foul play

Sorry bro can't help you. I don't keep them stock. It is not something you use everyday. Transmission fluid is not like engine oil...

These transmission fluid cost and to get the original will be very hard.. Fake oil oil and transmission fluid plenty more than ever now boss. Avoid tears.

Close eye now and place order with me now . Yes it will arrive Nov. Better to be late than wrecking your transmission with fake fluid.. This is why I posted a chat from a customer....... The ball is in your court

Lol of course it does, anytime it pops then it feels like a heart attack cos brake is less effective, but since I found a way around it nd brakes fine , I don't mind the sound and red cluster since January lol

Similar thing I'm facing and mine won't come back on at all, since I replaced alternator, I later realized there should be a wire that connects to the voltage regulator behind the alternator that the one I got didn't have, so I'm losing some convenience functions like the auxiliary port, power seats, and interior lights whenever I start the car but on ignition 2 everything works fine

Not anytime soon. The one I got in it works but just don't have where the wire that connects to voltage regulator should fit

I don't know why Benz added that feature. An hypertensive person must not buy a Benz o.. sometimes the beep reminds me of some terrorist movies I watched when someone is under attack. Mine started last month again but it only starts beeping when I drive for long hours. So when I park and kill the engine and restart the car the sound goes. So I don't just press break anyhow(because the number of times I press breaks counts in the SBC),so I give the car Infront distance.

I was having sbc problem too, someone recommended a mechanic to me in Apo, spent about 50 k, the including workmanship, mb hydraulic and he changed sbc pump and some components since then, the sbc pump error no longer come up again and the brake is fine. This is almost three months ago.

someone recommend the young guy (mechanic) to me, when i took my car to him, he inspected the car and gave me two option. he told me that is either i changed the SBC or he can repair it. initially i doubted him when he told me about the repair, but when he gave me assurance if he work on the car and the SBC start giving me problem that he will fix it without any cost. from what i discovered is that is not all SBC that need to be changed. he actually repaired it. changed the SBC pump , bleed the brake fluid and add new MB brake fluid , this is more than three months ago and till date no problem of SBC. least i forget this cost me about fifty thousand. most SBC that people buy for one hundred and fifty thousand are actually repaired SBC.

Hello guys. Please my 2008 c300 non 4matic suddenly stopped moving past gear one. The mechanic said I need to put new atf in the gearbox and replace the filter. This car is the v4 engine version with one exhaust instead of two.
Please I will like to know what brand of ATF will be good since the mechanic mentioned that this model uses a live transmission.
If anyone can help me on a good affordable brand and possibly cost of the ATF and gearbox filter. I would appreciate it.
