Hi Guys, seriously considering buying a  merc estate 320 petrol very very cheap,according to the owner it only has first gear on the auto box,anyone come across this before on this model?
Im guessing maybe low fluid
selector switch
or an electronic interruption,
know the boxes are  bombproof mechanically

[henryd]

low fluid or possible blocked strainer maybe

no idea about the autobox Omegatoy but,

be sure to have the second back up key.. demonstrating another back up key is neither easy nor cheap


I had an adventure with neighbours mercedes

Could be any of those, they can have selector problems, relays are inside the box iirc.......
