98 sl500 sport 2 strange issues no codes
Hey, everybody could use some help so I’ve got two situations going on simultaneously ongoing issue with my car upon initial take off shifts into second gear but between 2nd & the third gear It goes into a limp mode I back off the gas and It goes out of limp it does this while gradually gaining speed then goes away driving perfectly till I shut car off then it happens again . The second issue out of nowhere. The car started with this weird ticking rattling sound that you could hear in the video I place the camera were the sounds is the most pronounced. I thought it was possibly a hydraulic lifter but there’s zero noise coming from the top of the engine. Any input on this matter would be greatly .
