Does the service advisor look like Santa clause?
Northeastern has done some crazy things…
Its just a 722.6 trans, the same type Chrysler uses in the Jeep SRT8 etc.
They’re a pretty common trans. You can get a built one for that 5k.
any trans shop will pull and rebuild a 722.6 .
There are several good tranny shops in buffalo, amco , continential, e.t.c. The dealer IS going to bring it to them anyway, trust me I know…
Dealer is willing to cover 30% of cost, so $1590 off.
That still leaves me at $3710 if I go through them, aka, still no dice.
Sounds like time to get a lawyer ;)…

Hey MB, send me that 30% in cash and i’ll have blackforest do the work
Problems over.
This bitch is sold
What is the replacement going to be?
There is an older guy with a CLS63 AMG who ran his car at Lancaster & I told him to look for your car around town… guess not anymore.
In for seeing the replacement :tup:
I hear it might be a Prius
maybe he made a straight trade for a smart car at the dealership
Who picked it up, im assuming they got a smoking deal because of the transmission
Wait so when you buy a car that is 70k+ new its expensive to fix?
I had cheaper options, sure, but the point was to get the dealer to pay up. Since they only offered 33%, I said f it and sold it. Buyer flew in from Florida to take a crack at the fix.
As for replacement vehicle, slight downgrade but plenty tolerable.
fuck man, lmk next time. my dad’s got a lift, and tranny jack at his house with $750k in just tools. I pulled the tranny in my 996 there last year, shit fucking SUCKS!
edit: forgot you’re “automatic.” automatic german transmissions are probably a bitchass, good call.
AMG CLK63 black series?!?!?!?!
Scott I just read through this again and i’m bummed for you man. It’s also bullshit that shortly after dealer work it shits the bed on you. Correlation? I think so.
If it were me I would have demanded it be fully covered or burnt down the place.
Happy it worked out for you I guess. Do tell on the ‘slight downgrade!’
Nice upgrade!
