Hello,
When I put my 230GE transmission into drive, I have to rev the engine to ~ 2000 rpms until the needle for the speedometer finally moves.
Then, when I put it into reverse, it revs to ~ 3000 rpms.
I had it towed to a local MB dealer and they said that the transfer case was fine, but that it was a problem with the transmission -- they will have to send it off to their shop downtown to have a look at the tranny.
Questions:
1. Could it be something OTHER than the transmission??
2. If it is found to be the tranny, does a total rebuild need to be done or are there some parts that are replaceable (keeping in mind the damage isn't as bad as it could be)??
We have already had the original transmission rebuilt around 28,000kms ago by MB.
Thanks in advance,
Matt
