05 E 500 Valve Body Replacement
I'm new to the forum, it rocks..
I just purchased E 500 with 72k, and put 1,400 miles on it, during the first month. During that time, the trans has gone into the limp mode 3 times. Turn car off and on, and it's "good".
Dealer states "no signal from speed sensor" "code 2200" and they want to replace valve body at a cost of $2500.00
What's the going rate from local indy's in So Cal?
Do I replace it right away? it doesn't occur during my normal commute, just during long weekend drives.
Is it something that gets progressively worst? It's a nice car, I want to keep it running right. Obviosly, if I could postpone the expense that would be great.
On the other hand if I have to bite the bullet, I'd just assume to do it now...Thanks
