97 C280 Trans problem
202 chassis, 104.9 motor
235,000 mi
I'm pretty sure the car has the 722.6 transmission. Had the car since new.
The shift lever pops out of D to land between N and D. The car is still in gear but the shifts don't sound good. If I move the lever to N and pull it sharply back to D, it all gets happy again. I suspect that there's linkage bushing problem. Is there a DIY article on replacing the shift bushings for this tranny? I have the MB WIS installed on my computer but it is the most arcane, unfriendly bit of software I've ever used. Probably why MB has such generous flat rates.
The bushings were replaced a long time ago and the bill was about 150 clams so I figure it couldn't be that difficult to do.
Thanks,
John
