Any help, Auto transmission not shifting (E320 1998)
first of all my English not so good
The story started 2 weeks ago, when I felt some strange smell coming out of the car, then I discovered that the transmission cooler cracked inside radiator & mixed oil and water. Even at the time I discovered the problem the transmission was shifting properly. I have called mobile car to carry my car to mechanic to avoid damage to transmission. The mechanic replaced radiator, flushed the trans- and radiator, replaced filter and add new oil. 1 week from flushing auto transmission and cooling system, I felt some change in shifting way then I the second week transmission not shifting at all if it cool down I well shift for a minute then stop again. Diagnostic scanner give these codes 116 --> 20 (Transmission oil temperature sensor defective/Starter lock-out contact not functioning) & 147 -->51 (Gear implausible or transmission slips) Any idea?? ![]() |

The codes 51 & 147 are usually BAD codes.
A scanner can look at long term clutch adaptation numbers to confirn that.

Use the scanner as MBDOC said, if the adjustments have been occuring for many months, it may indicate a long term problem and that the trans has reached the end of its ability to adjust inself further.
