I've got a 97 C36 with 136,000kms.
What happened with yours?
What was your mileage?

I am curious because I know the 5 speeds were less reliable than the 4's.

+1,

I guess you have 722.629, if so, you don't have to stick with C36 gearbox,

you can go with any 722.6 V8 98-99 gearbox from "C43/CLK430/CLK55/E430/E55"..

E55 722.624 or C43 722.631, both are great for your C36..

Yeah correct,

722.604 is less torque which is: (A330Nm), need one like yours, to handle the Exist HP/tq which is: (A580Nm)..!
