Transmission Leak
I took my 93, 600SEL to my local MB dealer to service and repair a trany leak. Diagnosis = pan gasket, kickdown seals, and stick leaking. Replace and repair $188.00 (no big Deal).
Took it home and next morning found 1/2 a gallon of trany fluid on the floor.
Returned to dealer, who replaced the gasket again. Took it home and the next morning ...you guessed it 1/2 a gallon of trany fluid on the floor.
Back to the dealer she goes. this time they replaced the rear main seal and rear cover seal.
Took it home and the next morning though no where near as much as before...you guessed it a small but annoying puddle of trany fluid.
So back she goes, I must say the MB dealer has been very nice and given me a brand new loaner, but this is getting tiresome and even though there has been no extra cost, time and misery is adding up.
I have contacted MB customer satisfaction and they are going to talk to the service mgr about calling MB technical help.
Has anyone else gone through this or do any technical folks on this board have any ideas what could be going wrong here?
