Hi All,
I have a 2000 e320 4matic wagon with 189k that is slipping out of gear when the trans gets warmed up. I have read everything about this trans and the possible issues, service and culprits ( 2months of research). All have been checked but she still slips and goes into limp mode. I think in my case, the clutches were affected by anti-freeze exposure and a rebuild or replacement is in order. What I cannot find is the what transmissions are compatible with my specific model of the 722.6
Mine is a 722.664 (w5A/300). I was hoping MAVA or anyone with info about what other 722.6 transmissions can be used. It must be 4-matic obviously. I have not been able to source a cost effective replacement trans of the exact model and the rebuild costs ($2500+ is not worth it for me to invest into this car. I am happy to source a replacement and swap the trans, but need to know all my options for compatible versions that I can use. In all my reading, MAVA was the only poster hat seemed knowledgeable in this area.
The more options I have the easier and more resourceful I can be in locating a good replacement candidate. I thank you all in advance. Please provide any info of the compatibility of the 722.6 transmissions if you have any.
For example if the e430/s500 - 4M - V8 trans will work, that would help me greatly. These are more available and were some of the better examples of the 722.6 as they came with various updated parts etc in the later years (up to 2003 if I recall). gear ratios are very clsoe in 1st & 2nd, the rest remain the same. Can i use this without issues?
Details of all the various models and or their difference seems non-existent in my research. This is odd being that this is a super common transmission model and made in some many variations. Any info is greatly appreciated.
