So I've been searching and haven't found anything. When I put the shifter in park sometimes it will engage park, other times it will roll a bit and then click into park, and other times it will not engage park at all and roll away like it's in neutral. I worked at Mercedes before, and I have another c230k, and a c32 AMG and have never seen this before. All other gears and shifter functions are ok. The shifter linkage bushings are brand new Mercedes, and I tried adjusting the linkage. None of those things have made any impact on the park issue. I'm going to be dropping the pan for a service and a new filter, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what to look for inside the trans. I'm pretty familiar with the 722.6 as I replaced some solenoids on my c32. But I've never had a car not engaging park. And it's not like the parking pawl is broken because sometimes it goes right into park and clicks like it's supposed to... I don't know... scratching my head over this one...

Have you looked at the shift selector switch!!

I'm not sure what you're referring to, but I have checked the shifter unit itself, which for park thru drive is purely mechanical. 4-3-2-1 is electronic, and all those work. I also tried adjusting the shift linkage between the shifter unit and the transmission as I said above. It made no difference at all. It must be inside the transmission.
