i blame this on massive solar flare that was happening. while i was doing it. and my brain was completely lagging
the fact that i mentioned filling up hte transmission fluid through the dipstick hole and nobody on either forum corrected me at the time i can assume also because of the solar flare.
since this car doesnt have transmission dipstick lol.
so anyway
i drained my oil and it was time for an oil change anyway.
and its been 3-4 weeks and it is starting to shift and drive normally with exception of very hard bump or hard slip when shifting to second gear while cold.
it goes away completely when warmed up i smashed through gears off the light to kinda see where it stands and it shifted without hesitation thghough all gears when accelerating hard.
the engagemend is still a bit wobbly in lower gears but the rpm fluctuation is gone and shudder is gone.( only the blown out motor mounts remain now)
there is a thread on mb forums in amg section of people havign this issue on cold shifting with the amg cars. seems like i have exactly same
tried to get the dealership to update software for me while they were replacing the airbags recall but they just made me feel poor and not worth their time because i didnt own a brand new mercedes. seems like once your car is older than 5 years or out of warranty you dont exist for them anymore
i bought the vxdiag vcx j box to see if i can just do it myself
