any merc mechanics in the house? re a class semi auto
ok i believe these are prone to probs, its not selecting gears, i have been told that if i remove the passenger wing the acs pump is there and on the pump is a motor and to check the brushes on that, make nay sence?
secondly i believe basicly the car has a manual gearbox, and a manual norma gearshift etc its just the clucth thats auto?
so presumably if i can find a scrapper i could reasonably easy do a manual conversion?
what about wiring ie is there any sensors that would stop the car from starting etc?
i would prever to convert as i bet it would be worth more as a manual but if its a quick easy fix to fix the auto then so be it
any know it alls advise? as im just about to buy the car its a diesel 1999 for £675 which i spose is worth a gamble

test drove car today for over 30 mins but not going too far away as i was just waiting for it to give up but it didnt, probs obv there tho as prev keeper said had faults
it also has a power steering problem, if resart it comes back then gos. seing as its electric motors controling both spose first call is to remove them and strip inspect brushes etc

in your title it says semi auto and you say it has gearbox problems, i assumed you might need to take the box out, if you don't then great if you do then the engine and box have to come out in one lump.
