Greetings everyone, i'm Derek from CA. 2008 E550 airmatic, 2005 CBR1000rr repsol...Just thought I'd throw that it I have a situation and need help with diagnosing the problem. Changed out my battery one day, drove the car around, Every thing seemed to be working fine. Stopped for gas, started the car back up, proceeded to move forward and heard a clunk...clunk. The car was very hesitant to get out of gear...almost as if I was starting to drive with the emergency break on. After about 5seconds, the car was fine. Next day, as i pressed the gas, the car would barely move and when it did move it wouldn't respond to me pressing the pedal. As I put the car in gear, it would just rev as if it wasn't getting in gear. After turning the car off and trying again 3mins later, put the car in gear, the car went forward, but still not the way it should have. It felt like either it was slipping, or just plain wasn't going in to gear. Could this be transmission? Sensor related? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Smile Queries and Questions

Greetings all

Signed up today with a world of questions on my 06 CLS500 and a few from my R320 cdi. I started driving these darlings back in the early 2000's with a pair of E classes and have been all over the map ever since.

W202 C280
My First Benz

Hello MB World, Got my first Benz a month ago a W202029 C280 sedan elegance It had 177430 km on odometer when I picked it up, Was a Mercedes Benz Australia car for the first part of it,s life. I has a few things that need attention. 1. Hood lining needs removal and reglueing or new material stuck on. 2, May need the water deflectors behind the rear door trims repaired as after rain or washing the car as it appears to get water dripping out of the bottom of the door trim. But all in all it a great car to drive and is still better than most new cars from other makes. I will post some photos later. Regards Torn65

2013 C63 AMG
New Member

Hello All,

Nice to meet you. This is my first post. My wife and I just puchased a used 2013 C63 AMG (approx 20,000mi) This car is unbelievable. I will get some pictures up ASAP, but it is pretty much just a stock 2013, so nothing crazy.

We live in Germany and get to fully use the Autobahn in all of its splendor

The AMG was a 25 year wedding anniversary/military retirement gift. We saw it on a site, here in Germany, and went and bought it; kind of a "Why not?"

I look forward to learning from you all, and sharing the amazing experiences about these amazing cars.

Looking forward to the forum,

JD
