Its your gear selector on the transmission (ISM) playing its loose connection drama.

Get it worked on to resume driving. Many sources available .

Scan the car to confirm surrounding partners faults then deal with issues.

Yes, that is was to be expected. Do not ignore Benz warnings: each MB system has a prime day and a trained team to work it.

I’m fighting the same problem with my ML.

have you got yours sorted? Looking to join BenzNinja in the hope he can help confirm the issue and programme a replacement module.

I’ve picked up a good used DSM Module, opened up my old and this new module and swapped the circuit boards in the hope it would fix the issue without the need for coding, but the fault remains the same…..! 🤬

There's a small youtube channel called Mercedes benz Specialist, he has a lot of videos where he talks about High level Mercedes repairs. I would try reaching out to him
