My 1996 Mercedes C200 purrs like a kitten, but the five-speed auto gearbox is annoying me. It is very erratic, has clunky and flaring gear changes, and has even dropped back to second from third rather than going up to fourth and screamed to 7000 rpm until I backed off to get it to change. Is this attributable to the box itself, or the computer, and what can I do about it?
It’s the gearbox and it’s badly in need of some TLC. Take it to a transmission specialist and have it checked.
