working solutions 06 cls 500 tranny issue

Does the Valve body replacements work on these slipping transmissions and what are the cost? Have any of you CLS owner been satisfied with these repairs and how helpful was Mercedes in helping you resolve the issue. My tranny has been doing this for a few months and i am try to get all my ducks in a row before i go into my dealer and have this repair done I thought I would have the entire Valve Body replaced and not peacemill it sothat there wont be any kind of residual affects later by other components not changed, and does anyone know how much Mercedes stand behind this repair.

Please respond I want to be done with this issue, So sad that these high end vehicles are burdened by thier own technology to the point that us consumers become frustrated with what should be an elite product. Anyhow please help..
