Transmission wont shift
Hi
I have a 2005 c280 4matic the C/S button wont work , can't change gears manually and it will not shift out of 1st gear. Cant really find anything that states that mine has a 722.6 trans. Ive watch the videos about the plug housing and the contactor plate. Seemed to be a good candidate and also easier and cheaper. This is my first MB and owned it for 5 years and love them so much I brought a 2008 c300. I know theyre good cars just they are german made. I can work on most Amrican made cars but scared to death to attempt to work on mine.
Any help is very much appreciated

I have and it is p0715 input turbine speed sensor circuit. Looks like possible contact plate. Didn't know transmissions could produce a code. Check engine light has been on for a while for unrelated problem

Yup its the plate ... im almost 90 % sure that the 4matic version did not come with the 7gtronic transmissions ... i think your conductor plate is the cheap one that doesnt need scn coding , its just a simple swap ...

So I contacted MB to check to see whick transmission in my C280 and its a 722.6. What does that mean need scan coding? Sound s like a trip to the dealer. Will my car shift correct after the swap or will it still be in limp mode ? And also tring to figure out what transmission fluid to use. Not real excited about 25.00 a quart for MB. Any suggestions?
