What is this tranny piece?
I'm now on Benz #3 (my wife says it's a sickness). I keep telling her that I'm just getting started compared to some of the guys on the list.
This one is a 1992 190E 2.6. I purchased it knowing that it had only reverse. I figured a bad transmission. But, the fluid was at the right level, was a perfect shade of pink, and didn't smell off (burnt). So I pulled the pan and everything looked great. No fragments of anything in the pan or fluid. Then I pulled the filter and a little piece (one inch long) fell out. I've attached a picture of it.
Any idea what this is? Please tell me this is an easy fix (like "drop it in the fluid fill tube and it will seat itself" or something similar).
Thanks.
