Looking on advice for S400 Cdi
 

Hey guys!

I'm thinking of adding yet another Merc to my life, this time i found this beautiful 2001 S400 Cdi (Pic related).

It seems to be in a good condition but the only thing is that when changing from 1st to 2nd the automatic trans gives the car a very rough change.

Now im not sure what's causing this and i was wondering if any of you had this ?

If so what would be the possible scenarios, i mean how wrong can this thing go?

I do accept the fact that i will have to repair this car before i can use it as a daily driver, so now im looking for any advice.

How many miles on the car?

Around 124,274 or 200,000 KM

You should take it to someone who knows these cars and have it checked out before buying. Spend the $100 or so dollars. It may be well worth the investment. If the transmission is messed up then that is one of the most expensive repairs.
