Omg I had to come back to find this video!! I noticed my car was driving slower, more "sluggish". I even told this new Mercedes mechanic (I recently moved to a new city) who asked if I had my spark plugs changed. Replying yes, they asked if it helped & we both said not really. They said nothing else afterwards. I bet they know of this trick and was going to charge me a ton. I did these steps some days ago but this morning while driving to work I felt it! It worked!! My baby is back! 🤗 THANK YOU!

I think they may have misinterpreted what you were asking for, no way they would have charged you $1000 to do what's in this video. They could have thought you wanted the transmission adaption that they do (not sure exactly what they call it), it's kind of like a tune for the transmission. They change the clamping pressures of the clutches etc which is a lot more involved. I got it done to my A45 for free by Mecedes when the transmission was getting a fault fixed under warranty and it made a huge difference to how quick / snappy the transmission felt.

@LongJohnnn Жыл бұрын
@@swiift2k538 The main problem to look out for is the transmissions output shaft with the pre facelift models (2015 and earlier). You will hear a crunch when putting the car in reverse on a cold start. Had it happen to my car, thank god it was under warranty at the time because it wasn't cheap to fix. Otherwise the car is pretty reliable. If you plan on tuning it though, expect to have to replace the turbo at some point. If you are just talking about this reset only, yes it works and you should probably do it every month to keep the transmission feeling snappy. If you want to make it even better take it to mercedes or a tuner for reconfigeration which makes the transmission feel like it should have from factory, it completely transformed my car.

I think the concept of adaptive transmissions is pretty cool. I had no idea such a thing existed and discovered it by accident. I think I'm gonna try doing this with mine later today and see if a reset works. I've got a 2002 C320 with 97,000 kms so I expect I should be getting a nice ride out of it.

Hi, so basically the steps are: 1. Turn key to 2nd on position (cluster lights turn on) 2. Hold down gas pedal for at least 10 secs 3. Turn key to off position (cluster lights turn off) 4. Hold down gas pedal for additional 10 secs at least. 5. Let go of gas pedal. 6. Wait 2 mins. 7. Start car and drive round for 15-20 mins so the adaptive gearbox can relearn the way I drive. Is this correct?

DUUUUUUDE!!!!!! this just fixed my ISSUE!!! (W166 ML350 2013 Bluetec) TOP MAN!!! been losing my mind on this... done TWO gearbox oil and filter changes in a space of 1 MONTH and still no results... as like you said the transmission kept the previous 40 gear changes (which were ALLL jerky and BAD changes... vicious cycle of changes without a proper reset) and so my rpms were always out of sync with what the NEW fluids and serviced transmission defaults should be... and THIS literally did the job... GREAT video man! I was literally in the mindset of scrapping the car if I couldn't fix this.

@@DE-sz2mj I've done this multiple times since this thread... and I found that it either works best (or a placebo effect lol), after the 2 x 10 second waits... turn off ignition... take key out let all lights go off, then put ley back in turn on... wait 2-3 mins and THEN drive... don't turn car off until you feel you have gone through at least 40 gear changes via driving calmly = no rapid acceleration or harsh breaking... let the gears work their way through UP and DOWN easily without harshness = allowing car to downshift itself as you approach stops/traffic lights.
