Automatic transmission problem C240
Hi guys, I, desperately, need some help.
A few days ago a noticed a transmission leak in my c240 elegance, 2005, 6 cylinder merc.
I checked a couple of posts to go ahead and change the adapter plug with o-rings transmission cable that was leaking. I also decided to change the oil filter and the pan gasket. It seemed like an easy task.
However I later found that I couldnt check the apropriate oil level in the gearbox because there is no dipstick. Nor can I get one in my country, Peru. So I measured what came out from the pan and filter, 2 1/2 quartz aprox, and added 1/8 additional of OEM FEBI oil.
After finishing I started the car and let it warm up to operating temp. Then with brakes on Istarted moving the stick through the gears for a couple of minutes. I felt it was not engaging as smooth as before. I took it for a very slow ride and inmediately noticed that revs went up and no gear change. I stoped the car and when I tried to restart it wouldnt. Just one short crank. Also while driving it I couldnt switch gears moving the stick sideways nor pressing the C/S button worked.
Can Anybody help me? Please.
