Does this sound right?
The replacement ($3K, 12mo. guar) is supposed to have updated gearsets that address the issue.
If this is true, was there a recall on this?
Any chance of me getting compensation from MB?
Or was I just unlucky?

What was the milage on the car when tranny died ?
That is what they mean by fill-for-life transmission fluid. The lifetime of the warranty.
