Hey I am looking at a 2002 S500 that is for sale but there is a problem with the car. The car doesnt go past 30mph. The seller said they had it looked at and the error code that came up is P0778 transmission code. He said that solenoid B needs to be replaced. Does anyone know if that alone could be the problem or could it just be the transmission? Also if it is the transmission does anyone have an idea of the cost? Thanks everyone!!!

 

Yes sir! A new Transmission will cost you $5,280.80. Go to: MercedesPartsSuperstore.com. Best to you with this replacement. Just get'er done!

 

I hope you are getting a really, really good deal on the car!

 

That's automatic transmission faliure....... replace a new one is your remedy .... hope the guy who sells this sellsl you VERY cheap...

5k for replacing new tranny ...oh dear lord..

good luck

 

stay away from it bacause its probably more that the trans problem, or maybe not the trans at all.
