2001 W203 Mercedes C240
2001 Mercedes C240

I have a 2001 Mercedes Benz at 85,700km.
A week ago i hit into a hump and the lower transmission pipe came out without my knowledge until I moved about a kilometer when I noticed a drag. I stopped and called a mechanic who tolled it.

He replaced the pipe and added ELF CVT transmission fluid. The car started dragging when I come to a stop and i want to accelerate. This is accompanied by excessive vibration of the engine. It can go as far as 5sec before it can accelerate.

I toke it back and he changed transmission fluid to dextron 3. But it's still performing the same.

What can be the problem?

If you have such people, take the car to a transmission specialist for a second opinion--my opinion is your transmission is toast!!
