Shift Knob Feels HOT!?
ok it's not exactly the shift knob, but the metal part(shifter) is um very hot~?... anyone know what the heck is going on? is this normal or a problem? and my car seems to get hotter than other cars... on sunnday warm days, it gets past that 80C mark and goes to like 90-100C is that normal? cause i thought cars r suppose to operate at 80C?

I would not say it is hot, it is warm to me even the ambient temp. is 90F or higher in summer time here in Taiwan.

its just a little heat from the tranny because Mercedes really f**ked up the interiors of our cars.
For example, my drivetrain functions perfectly, but my interior rattles like hell and falls apart from time to time.
