Thanks for showing me never to buy this car, was very tempted as its very cheap here. Love your unique overheard jack. Not easy making this video. Really appreciate the look inside a cvt and its weak points.
He's not showing you to never buy the car, he is showing you what can happen with them and yes obviously they are getting old. They get neglected because of the cost of maintenance. The W169/W245 were incredibly innovative, safe, fantastic fit and finish and had technology that is still not always offered or is optional on new cars of its type. It's 2mm shorter than the last Ford KA (FIAT 500 one) but has space inside to rival a Focus/Golf/Astra. I'm 5"11 and if I sit in the front passenger seat and put it all the way back I can stretch my legs entirely. They are fun to drive, refined and despite engine lowering/engine out jobs and some MB parts being incredibly expensive all the usual wear and tear stuff like brakes, wheel bearings, tyres are all really cheap. They are also easy to upgrade and you can take some parts from special equipment vehicles and retrofit them to a classic model.
Good evening Mr and thank you for sharing your knowledge about the A Class, I'm a big fan of you. Can you please explain to me what is the cause of the breakage of a new accessory belt installed after only one week? Twice !! It's an automatic 170 cdi 95hp
Sorry I missed your question. A170 alternator has a freewheeling pulley, and when this pulley sizes the belt tensioner overworks and results in damaging the belt prematurely
Great video. I have a P0841 Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch “A” Circuit what could be the cause? I inspected the valve body and there's no cracks. do you think its the TCU? Inside the transmission everything looks good.
No. It says transmission service required on the cluster display and the car has erratic shifting. I only got the p0841 code from the ecu. Have you ever seen this issue?
Hi, thanks for your video. Please, could you let me know where is connected the metallic strips that appear in the minute 10:50? It could be feasible to do it until to see these strips that seem to be difficult to put again in their place.
Is it heat to put in a new valve body and replace the transmission oil and filter with new what would you say is best or fit the new valve body with the dirty transmission oil.
Hello! Thank you for the video. I have a Mercedes B Class from 2009 with automatic transmission and the car whines, i wonder if it can de the transmission. The funny thing is, when it is in park and neutral, it whines. But when it is in drive or reverse, it stops whining, and only whines again when you press the accelerator. It whines louder when you press the accelerator. There is no error message, and the car drives well, just the whining noise. Could you help with any idea? Thanks!
I love my a class has an automatic i did replace the control module but the vst is otherwise great I found no matter what automatic you have the control module goes tits up at around 180k a pain and not cheap but there it is
Hi Im from Spain I bought an A class 1 year ago and now sometimes enters in limp mode we made a test and code p2732 comes Up any it says transmission fluid pressure solenoid F problem or stuck off can be the root of the problem? Or is the control unit for sure by the way no visit workshop message on the screen :/
In my B180 W245 the car has whizzing sound when on park and neutral when driving it jumps and cannot pass 80 km/h. Please advise what could be the problem
Thanks for a very informative video. My girlfriend have a 2006 Mercedes B 180 2.0 Cdi. On highway-driving it works normal, but in city-driving and in drive-mode it jumps out of gear occasionally. A change to neutral and back to drive and it works fine again. Shift gear manually and it works great all day long. Could an oil and filter-change get rid of that gremlin or is there something else? Car has 190 000 km.
Hi. Thanks for an informative video. On my 2006 A170 auto, i had the tcu refurbished and everything was good for about a year. Now it has developed new symptoms. Starts normal but when you put it into any gear or even neutral there is a grinding noise and the car only moves backwards. As per your other video, i checked the driveshaft while in neutral and its NOT turning. Any thoughts on what might be wrong here? Thanks
hi im having very similar problem.. i had p0732 and i had the tcu out sent it to ecu specialist to solder and now im stuck with p0710 and i dont know ive talked to the ecu specialist and he said he checked and and backed up the file before he proceed with soldering. your help will be very appreciated. thank you.
Hello, you only send your CVT control unit for repair if you have fault codes 0722 or 0793, anything else is mechanical. Different mechanical failures in the gearbox trigger similar fault codes and these fault codes usually will not tell you where the fault is.
Thanks for a very informative video. I have a 2006 Mercedes B 200 2.0. However it jumps out of gear occasionally. To start the car I have to put it in Neutral press the accelerator slightly and back to drive and it works again. It works well but once it jumps out of gear once, it starts to do it more frequently , its getting worse overtime. Are there any solutions to this ?
@@forrera168 I’ve changed the fluid put fresh stuff in. I put 7 litres of new fluid. Some people telling me needs new transition some say new valve body.
Hi I have A200 Turbo 2005. Codes from computer p0702. But I dont have this issue with the belt inside. Any ideas what can be? From where to start do a check ? First I did change the battery, because was gone. Message comes same as in video, after you turn key ignition to second position. I guess maybe connector plug with wires may can be damaged. Because oil and filter is new, I guess they change this before, maybe this time they demaged someone of the wires. Or it's just corroded. I don't know please if you got any ideas just let me know.

@@acronis18 You can replace the belt but it's made of steel, 100s of small pieces joined together and when it breaks small bits of metal go everywhere in the gearbox.

Hi, thanks for your video. Please, could you let me know where is connected the metallic strips that appear in the minute 10:50? It could be feasible to do it until to see these strips that seem to be difficult to put again in their place.
The metallic strip you refer to is part of the bands that are part of the drive system of the transmission. It has broken away, you can’t put it back

The noise is coming from input shaft bearing in the gearbox. I'll be talking about that in future videos.
@@forrera168 Thank you for the info! Is this an easy/possible repair or must it be the replacement of the whole automatic transmission?...
I like the A-Class 😊
Hi . I have merc A class 2009 with the same problem. Can I bring the car to you ? How much do you reckon the cost will be ?
I love my a class has an automatic i did replace the control module but the vst is otherwise great I found no matter what automatic you have the control module goes tits up at around 180k a pain and not cheap but there it is
A 160 2002 1,6 auto transmission oil capacity ?? >>> ATF 3 4L??
There is no fixed value because the longer you leave it the more it will drip.
If you do an oil and filter change it takes 3.75 litres.
@@forrera168 they wrote 8 liters of oil in the service here. ATF MVS
@@Dj_NuRiK this is from dry, with no oil in torque converter. And then again, 8 litres is too much.

Very unusual. First thing you need to do is check the fluid level. There's no dipstick you'll have to buy one from eBay.
@@forrera168 I’ve changed the fluid put fresh stuff in. I put 7 litres of new fluid. Some people telling me needs new transition some say new valve body.
The only way to fix this is to replace a 2nd CVT transmission and then change the oil , my question is how long can this thing last ??
How you use the car is big factor in how long it will last. Not just the maintenance.
