I have a 1997 C280 Sport, how can I determine which tranny is in this car? I have searched the forum and it appears it may be a 722.6 but want to be sure.

Thanks

ericp,
Though I wouldn't know your model if it ran over me, I went to Fastlane (above) and clicked your year, make & model. From there, I clicked on transmission. I next selected trans mount and it listed the transmission as "722.604". Hope that helps.

PS I try to use Fastlane to help me identify parts via their photos

Best

In my owner's manual pack, I have the "build sheet", which lists the motor number, tranny number (and lot's of other unintelligable babble...)

Hope this helps...

I thought their may be a site that by VIN I could get model. I bought the car used and don't have original owners pack. From reading past posts it appeared they may have changed tranny's half way through 1997 due to problems with 96's and early 97's

If, on your shifter assembly there is a small rocker switch marked W and S, it is a 722.6.

Thanks Gilly,

I do have a S & W so it is a 722.6. I understand there were some upgrades to the software for that model. Do you know if that is something that would only be covered under warranty?
