 A well know problem to us all.... Failure of the "Electronics Pack/Conductor Plate"....

With 2 other MB with the 722.6 box, I've "always" noticed a "Difference" in the way the
E320 shifted.. Even straight out of the Sindelfingen plant... "A different thrust/weight

Quoted: 144 Post(s) myself.... OhLord *DID* say the new 722.9 fluid causes a harsher shift...""
(Thread Starter)

My bubble of Denial burst the other day... Going to work... at a stop sign, hit the gas...
VVRROOMMM... but am NOT MOVING!! Ok, let's try reverse... VVROOOMMM

Oh.... Sh.....ugar!! A $5,000 trany needed!!

After a "reset" I get home, and hook my Baby up to my new "toy" STAR Compact3.

Since I have the diagnostic skill of a Temple Monkey... I use my "Mechanic in a Laptop"
to take my hand and guide me down the diagnostic tree to determine my "Speed
Sensor #3" is "Intermittently" failing.. So, I'll change it out.

Thus, the post.

Here is a list of needed Parts:

8 quarts of the "new" MB fluid 001-989-68-03-10

Pressure Regulator Spring (Yes, those Idiots at MB change out the WHOLE Valve body,
rather than the stupid $8 spring-- thus, NO MB number) Sonnax 68942-01 You should
be able to get it at your local Transmission Supply house.

Like the WIS warns.. "Even a Speck of Foreign Material can Cause **FAILURE** of the
Transmission"---- So BE WARNED!! Absolutely METICULOUS Cleanliness must be
observed... I LITERALLY wore surgical garb, so no Hair, no NOTHING would
inadvertently fall into the valve body... and I did the work on a sterile surgical drape..
Overkill?? Perhaps... but that's just me...

Of course, "usual" safety procedures must be observed. If you don't know what that
means... then this job is NOT for you.. Do work at your OWN RISK!!

Cheers,
G

Very impressive, G. Not just that you do it, of course, but you do it
with such precision and, of course, stop to take pictures and then
annotate them for others.

I see stuff like this and the below comes to mind.

You'll see lots of neat and fancy things in G-AMG's DIY posts. I'm trying to figure out if
that is a Hazet mirror.

Olivier A Woaw... Nice clean explanation G-AMG, and so detailled.

BenzWorld Elite

Is there no way of just changing a single component/ sensor in the conductor plate?
You need to change it all for one sensor?
Cheers.
