Hi, I bought my first Merc a few months ago & loving it. I've slowly but surely been getting the usual jobs done, replacing pads, disks, suspension arms, etc but i have an auto box issue i would like some assistance with.
There is no 5th gear. if you use the paddles it switches from 4 to D. If it wasn't revving over 3k at 80mph you'd think it's a 4 speed auto.
I see other threads mentioning a switch that sticks on other models resulting in no shift into 5th but would that also cause it to go 1,2,3,4,D as opposed to showing 5?
Thanks for any assistance
Cheers
Shoie

5th gear is listed as D as far as I have seen on mine.
