Possible Transmission Issue

Hello,

I have a Mercedez Benz E Class 2006. The transmission works for about 10 minutes and then stops working. A mechanic hooked up a scanner for the check engine and it reads this:

1705 fault exist in the control module transmission

He said he couldn't do anything. I need a mechanic in NYC who could help me fix this.

Regards,

Demetrius

@neapolitan Sorry to hear about the transmission situation. How long have you owned the vehicle? When was the battery last replaced? What modifications are on the vehicle (headlamps, dash cam, audio system, interior lighting, etc.)?

1. How long have you owned the vehicle? I don't remember the exact date of purchase. I would say around 2-3 years.
2. When was the battery last replaced? Very recently actually. Maybe couple months ago.
3. What modifications are on the vehicle (headlamps, dash cam, audio system, interior lighting, etc.)? Audio system doesn't work. No modifications whatsoever. I just want it to drive me from A to B.
