722.6 Transmission Jerk when Warm

Hello,

This forum has been fantastic for me to get all German and obsess on all the details and quirks of the W211.

Just purchased my very first MB, a 2005 E500 Wagon with 84k miles on the clock.

When the car is cold, there are no noticeable transmission jerks - however, once warm, the transmission does have a jerk when the car is coming to a stop and changing into the lowest gear.

Wonder if anyone else has experienced this behavior - it seems that most experiences are jerking when the transmission is cold not when it's warm...

I plan on have the transmission fluid replaced & conductor plate replaced for preventative maintenance in the spring.

Cheers in advance.

Get it scanned or you're wasting money.

That being said.... I'll put five bucks on a solenoid failure on the conductor plate.... ~$1000

@Honcho - where do I send that $5?

Will get it scanned and see what the deal is. Will post an update once I have it.

Thanks for the advice.

Happy New Year.
