[seanmeti]

I have been having a problem with my s class for a couple of weeks not. It goes super slow sometimes i stop and go on reverse car wont go than i have to shut it off and turn it back on than it works. Today Check engine light finally came on and i took in to get the code read it said P2767. Have any of you guys have had this problem and what have you done to fix it. I seen few posts they talked about speed sensor?

P2767 transmission: limp home, speed sensor ring K1 error.

The input and output turbine speed sensors are located on the electronics plate above the valve body and this may need changing, here is a link to the 210 diy for this job, 210 has the same transmission.

I would need your vin # to check which transmission is fitted to your car, it should be the 722.6 and if so the above diy is OK.

Eric does the gas peddle has anything to do with it or. I asked one of my friends who has the same car but a 01 and he said he had this problem and he went online research it and went to Mb and bought a new gass peddle install it and everything was fine he said he never ran his check engine code to see what code it was he just change it from what he read online.

He got lucky, there are many things can cause this and that is why we rely on the fault codes to put us in the right area, your only reported code was the transmission sensor.

Eric i went to this shop by my house who works on this cars and this is what they told me. They said we ran the this 4 codes 206b,200a,2201,2200. I informed them of what was happening with the car they told me the Bad Valve control is bad maybe more. They also told me i have a 7 speed trans not a 5 speed. I have a 2004 s430 i always thought it was a 5 speed. But they told me this can only been done at the dealer and that they would get it ready than send it to the dealer which they quoted me $1500 to fix the problem. I brought the car home and will take it to MB dealer and just have them inspect it and hope its something small because this seams weird for what they said.
