Prefer to perform/adapt the gearbox manually, then reset all the system via SDS, to make sure, all RPM shift points saved correctly to the ECU/TCU data/file..!

so would other gearboxes from a different engine fit onto the E55? ive actually dropped my merc off to a Mercedes specialist to have the gearbox reset only because of my problem, i put my foot down yesterday and it backed off the power again but this time the ESP light came on and i think it went into limp mode.. i hope the reset works.. im also thinking have i put a gearbox from a different engine into the car cause of the issues im having

Maybe you don't have to change your gearbox,
may have a "bad conductor plate or oil goes to your TCU or oil level NOT correct",,
have to check these first, before spending $$$$$$..!

proper box for E55 AMG is 722.636, if you bought a box for a different model say a lesser E280/E320 you will break that box with the torque from your monster engine.
box from E55 - S55 - ML55 will work on your car

ML55 had 347HP like CLK55 engine
ML55 engine can't have less torque 510NM versus C43AMG 410NM engine, this means ML55 can't have a weaker tranny than C43AMG.
w210 E55 have 530nm
CLK55/ML55 had slightly less HP/NM than E55AMG engine, this was for marketing reasons, E55 was more luxurious than the cheaper siblings.
S55AMG had 360HP and a bit more NM than E55AMG which was a lesser model than S55AMG.
the baddest a$$ was the S65AMG with 1000NM, this monster car is a different story

Sure Dennis,
but nothing to do with Engine torque, that's a differ thing, comparing to the transform out-put power to drivetrain,
Ml55 got "2" differential with (3.46:1) Ratio, with two-speed dual range for transfer case with reduction gearing>> 4-ETS simulated three differential locks,,
which means; the way of power is differ than all Saloon's family..

got me car back from Merc specialist regarding the gearbox issue and it came back with nothing wrong with the box that i bought from them, they recon its the throttle body which i thought was strange as it never had that problem when the old box was in the car so im not too happy back to square one!!!
