Hi everyone! Well I’m about to replace my Solenoids and I order them at Amazon and they sent me one that has a different number. Should I return the one with the different number or it is ok to go ahead and do the swap. ?

The ones I just ordered You can see that the two top solenoids ends with 0535 and the bottom one ends on 0635

Now the ones that are still on the conductor plate (the old ones) all 3 Solenoids end on 0535.


Thanks in advanced! And sorry if I posted on the wrong forum.

Interestingly enough, the superseded part for 140-277-05-35 is 240-270-16-00. 140-277-06-35 isn't even listed as a PN on this site. With that said, a lot of times the MB database (for consumers) won't show the various PNs for parts within subassemblies, which is what you're probably seeing.

In the past I've installed parts that the dealer told me wouldn't work (ie the PN wasn't shown for my particular car based on VIN) but it worked fine anyways. So the dealership database isn't 100% bulletproof either.

To be honest, if the part has the same dimensions and connectors it'll probably work. If I were in your shoes I'd give it a go and see what happens. Worst case scenario you'll have some rough shifting, in which case you'll know.
