Thank you, very useful and informative. I have a 2003 A140 which has had this repair done some years back but has failed again. I was told an uprated part was fitted.
Have read your comments on forums over many years. Your virtually the only person i have come across who really knows their stuff on these a classes and you are rational and you make sense. Your vids are very much appreciated . You are the man!
Thank you Sir very helpful video for cvt transmition, i have problem with whinning noise with no fault and my car drive normally only the whining noise what disturbed me
When you say 'warm up the engine', how long do you mean to warm it up?? I warm mine maybe 1 minute, I blip the revs, and they drop down to about 700rpm, then I move off. More gently in the first few minutes. thanks
And my second issue is, while driving on "manual" mode for the W169 by manually shifting the gear lever left (downshifting) and right (upshifting), i notice while on the 2 lowest gears, there is a grinding sound that resembles the sound of sandpaper rubbing against a surface. This sound is currently not noticeable at 3rd and higher gears. This is on manual mode. But when i change to fully automatic mode (by shifting to N and then shifting to D), the grinding sound disappears (or maybe the sound is there but it is too faint to be heard from the driver seat while driving, surely not noticeable at this moment compared to the loud grinding sound while on manual mode in the 2 lowest gears). What could be the probable cause? Thanks a million.
Hi Sevan, appreciate your advice on this issue my 2006 W169 A170 is experiencing....there is vibration and sound when the gear selector is on R and D with the aircond turned on but no sound or vibration in P and N gear. While on R and D gears, the vibration and sound get louder and louder as I turned the aircond blower from level 1 (softest) to level 5 (loudest). If I switch the aircond off, no sound from all gears P, R, N and D. Aircond off, no sound, no vibration at all. Can you pleaae advise me how to remedy the vibration and sound issue? Thanks.
I send my A190 in for gearbox repair .. it came back leaking oil from top hose nut, and making a loud screeching noise when forward engaging , almost like a loose engine mount noise but it comes from the 1st drum that you replaced around that area .. Now the garage doesn’t want to take responsibility for their work . How do you remove the engine steps ? I need to search that video . From the ground with no hoist / lift.
Screeching noise after this job is either coming from the washer with 3 legs on the cover dropped out if it's place 28:58 or the washer underneath the bottom thrust bearing of the middle shaft 17:58 broke.
Please i need help from your big knowledge, i have b200 turbo cvt my car transmition stuck in first gear abd don't want change for any gears only drive on first and i dont have any warning on dash, i contact obd to read fault code i have P0730, any idea and advice?
Oil and filter new, the control unit its ok after been checked, the vavle body and valve are oj after beeping checked as well, i was drive my car without warning the engine and transmission its my fault unfortunately 😞 any ideas what can case the transmition stuck in first gear?
Hi brother I emailed you previously regarding leaking oil, the engine oil is completely leaking from the car and we are really worried, it is a B180 Mercedes B class 2010. My mechanic is saying it’s going to be a big job and a lot of money but we cannot afford a new car and were wondering if you had advice, thank you much appreciated

Thank you Sir very helpful video for cvt transmition, i have problem with whinning noise with no fault and my car drive normally only the whining noise what disturbed me
Great Job.
Great video, extremely well explained. Consider being a tutor at tech schools one day?
Is that an offer?
@@forrera168 I'm still turning spanners for a living, just on larger vehicles. I just thought you'd be great at teaching ;)
Sir. Where are you based, and wats your tel. No many questions !!
I have a question ! What automatic transmission Mercedes benz has used for the A class w168 (1998-2004)?
When you say 'warm up the engine', how long do you mean to warm it up??
I warm mine maybe 1 minute, I blip the revs, and they drop down to about 700rpm, then I move off. More gently in the first few minutes.
thanks
You're doing ok

Hi, sorry for bothering you. My a class a160 722.7 transmission has no drain on the torque converter. How do I get the fluid out? Please help.
@@floorskleynhans56 you either drain it while out of the car or flush it several times. I haven't seen one with drain plug in this model

why did you not replace the gasket?
I replace it if it's damaged, but it's fine to use the old one if it's in good condition.

He said the seals need replacing? Not sure what he meant, the car is automatic. Thank you
Mechanic said sump gasket, possibly timing chain cover gasket
Hello, I called the number you gave me and there was no answer.
