Need transmission valve body

Hi!

Anyone knows where I can get a valve body for my c220. I'm really getting frustrated looking for that part. If not for c220, maybe a w140 will do. thanks.

By the way, if you guys can find me one, I'll buy it from you. Just as long as it's reasonable. Brand new, used or rebuilt. I don't mind.

Actually, the dealer sells re-manufactured valve bodies.
Careful buying a used one, it may have crap in it and they are very time consuming to properly clean out.

Thanks for the advice. I was able to get someone to rebuild mine. I got hold of mike from Valve Body Pro and I'm still waiting for it to be finished. Hopefully it will fix the problem. Comes with a year warranty, so I'm pretty confident that this company knows what their doing.

The original I had doesn't shift to last gear, so most of the time I get stuck on 3rd gear. It won't go all the way to all the gears, everything works properly, but when you hit 60 - 70 miles, it suppose to shift to the last gear. Mine doesn't and you can really hear the engine screeming out loud. I brought it to a shop and we tested a w140 valve body, my car worked real good. It shifted really nice.
