'94 E500 Tranny Slip
 

Help!! :eek:

My 1994 E500 is not "grabbing" when I put the shifter in reverse. Fluid level is correct (there are two levels on the dip stick, it is full where it says "180", the higher of the two measurement places), it has 118,000 miles, is do for a filter and fluid change at 120,000, and the only recent repairs were a new radiator (and hoses) about 2 month's ago. Hopefully there is an easy remedy, or advise on how to proceed.

Thanks

Steve

I think you can do a search for numbers...if so, do a search for 722.3 (or 722). Whatever you do, don't rev the engine to "make" it go into reverse.
Hopefully some of the members with transmission expertise can chime in.

Thanks Larry. I did a search, but I'm afraid I have grown more confused. Other than the dealer (who for a variety of reasons I do not have a good relationship with) there are not any local shops to get an opinion from. In the meantime I'll grab a rental car in the morning and hopefully someone with additional insight can chime in.

Thanks again

Steve
