no, the tranny is coming from an outside source. I am getting quotes on install only. just spoke with a shop owner who mentioned he has never had the broken bolt problem....uses a LOT of liquid wrench and lets the bolts SOAK for a period of time.... the shop I am talking with has a lot of experience installing transmissions, however they have not done much in the german car area. that alone makes me nervous because of the complexity of a 560SEL.
