Im a Mercedes Tech (retired now) and this is the first time seeing this method of resetting shift adaptation values. Actually I like your video because it resets the shift values at both cold and hot. When you use the key method I think your wiping all shift values and the car will have to relearn or better said adapt to the drivers habits. The Mercedes Benz DAS software actually records the shift adaptation values in 3 different temp ranges cold medium and hot. Usually the shift adaptation values are transferred over to a new conductor plate by the technician when replacing the plate in order to avoid the hard shifts that occur when installing a new conductor plate on the 7G transmissions (722/9) But when this data is lost due to a total failure, like the TCU is beyond reading its data, then the shift element can be adapted individually in DAS. Once you perform for say the 1-2 shift adaptation or learning manually it will display a page with the shift adaptation values in the 3 temp ranges. Those 3 ranges are learned by driving the car. Always the best way to do any and all of these type of things is if you have the Mercedes Laptop but I understand not everyone can afford one as they are very expensive. Im just throwing all of this talk out there to help people better understand these cars. The Mercedes with the 5 speed trans (722/6) are basic and cheap to service and replace the conductor plate, but the 7 speed (722.9) cost a lot more and require SCN coding and adapting the part to the car. This is done on the laptop. Then you have to have a login and password to connect with Mercedes Benz too. So just having the laptop wont get you there you also need to know someone who can log you in or go to a shop that has the expensive Mercedes Benz subscription! So for the 7 speed yes you can do the filter services but a shop is recommended for the conductor plate. Now if you only have a speed sensor code yes you can replace it yourself if you have mechanic skills as they are available online on eBay. If you get the output sensor code address any ABS codes first as a wheel speed sensor can make this trans code pop up. The Engine Trans and ABS computers all work together and share data with each other through the data bus known as the CAN which is communication area network a 2 wire data bus where all the ecus talk to each other. Well the coffee I was drink just wore off and Im talking too much here. Thanks again for your video! Hope everyone take good care of their cars!
This is extremely interesting, thank you so much for posting it all. I'm still a beginner when it comes to maintaining my car but this really puts a lot of it into perspective on just how complicated some of the engineering really is. Absolutely love my W164 and hope it lasts another couple hundred thousand miles!
Thank you
(2013 MB A Class 200) Please advise ...."Without changing gear, consult workshop" warning appears when car is sitting idle at lights, or in traffic in "P". The engine cuts out and needs a key start then take to "D" seems to drive ok but starting to occur often. What does this warning mean? Does anyone know if this is this an easy reset, or does it need a workshop repairer? Thanks in advance......
@@domrowe5537 Take it to the shop that has Xentry DAS software and a connection to the MB servers. Chances are you will need to re-flash the transmission control module with an update or replace the control module and update. This is just an educated guess without seeing the car. A diagnostic scan of all the control units is the first step. Second based on the results and diagnosis the repair is performed and if needed the car will need computer updating. The warning the car is displaying is a warning that usually only comes on the dash of a car that has had the transmission ECU/conductor plate replaced and this appears before that conductor plate is coded to the car. So figure that one out. Have you recently replaced any parts? If not get ready to spend some money as these repairs are not cheap.
If I reset adaptation with sd do I have to do 3 temps adaptation on the road with das or car will re-learn? Thanks
As always I like the videos you do, helps me and other Mercedes owners out tremendously. Looking forward to the transmission fluid change video for diy followers.... My GL is around 145,000 miles now. Oh yeah ,1736👍

Pops just recently past away, and he was a Baby Boomer. Who was a Technician/Engineer/ Fiber Optics Installer, and always DIY'd everything. I just inherited a vehicle, 1999 E320 4 Matic. Over 200,097 miles lol. I've came across your videos and Page and am so blessed by your wisdom and knowledge. It's actually encouraging me to restore the whole vehicle lol. Thank you for what you've done, what you're doing on this channel, and will like to support this page and start using your website. All the way from Kansas. Thank you again.
Eric, I can't even count how much time and money you have saved me on my E350 & GL450 over the course of your videos. Thank you once again. This worked no mire thump no more bang when putting it in reverse. Thank you, thank you 🙏
This channel is so informative it's crazy! Thank you Keith and please keep recording the extremely useful content! All the best in 2021!
My name is Steve Daniel , I live in Houston Texas and i am new to Mercedes . I bought a 2005 E320 Mbz cdi and i am enjoying my purchase. I saw a few of your RUclips Videos and I am impress , keep doing what you are doing, you are very KNOWLEDEGEABLE .
1736. Just bought a used 2007 ML 350 and I’m trying to learn as much as I can about it and your videos are great.
Great one Keith. I'll try this.
Hmm, guess it was my question answered. Many thanks, will try this out.
Great video Keith, you give the best advice and tutorials . Also I left a message awhile back about getting rid of late oil change message & messages of that sort. Thanks.
Did you ever find out how to remove the late service messages? My GL 320 cdi has one on…
A Huge Thank You. Bc Your Video Got My Car To Open. I Haven't Driven It In Over A Year. So Battery Was Dead. Again I Appreciate
very informative and much appreciated. I just bought an S320 and having that transmission problem. I will try this tomorrow.
Why do you cover your face at the end of every viedeo? does it has any meaning?
thankfully for all ur efforts and helpful information
I enjoy your videos! I have a 2005 C320 4-Matic.
Perfect AS ALWAYS 👍👍👍 Love your videos true to form.
I'm going to try tomorrow! Hope its for all Mercedes Benz
Gracias por estos excelentes videos . Saludos desde Argentina
Great video! Please could you do a video for a complete transmission fluid change including torque converter. i have ml350 2013 and seem to have harsh shift chnage and jerking... Done a fluid change but only 6 liters cane out when it takes 8 approx... Rest is in the torque converter which is cant seem to figure out how to do. Great vids keep em coming.
thanks! I'll try it.
1736, I have a merc ml 350 2007' learnt things from u I never knew,absolutely fantastic..lorra
Thanks 1736- you’ve been a world of knowledge.
Useful information thanks!
Great information! Thanks!
had the same problem with W205
thanks
You video has been of great help, what do one do if you're in motion and the gear doesn't change regularly?
Thank you for the video. it helps me a lot.
Awesome
Thanks a lot it's been good so far
Legend! Thank you so much!
Good video ! Thanks ! Smart man.
Thanks for this video! I have been having rough shifts when coming to a stop or when shifting from Park to Drive. On my ML350 and have noticed this in my c230 though not as bad. Please post a video about changing transmission fluid & filter. Thanks!
Great question. Check my video from two weeks ago.
Could you please share us the link of exact video
Thank you for this, I will try it, I have the same problem roughly every 2 weeks since August I have a C230 with 130,000 miles I really hopes this works,as I cannot afford a transmission overhaul at the moment.
How did everything turn out? Hoping you had some good luck!
You are subscribed my friend, thank you for the efforts.
I have an ML 350 W164 - 2008 and I have this sound when going from D ro R. I'll try this when I get my car back from mercedes. I was getting a service engine light and they are doing the brake recall for free though.
Hey question. Driving my mercedes at about 60 to 65 mph all the dash lights came on and then went off. Car was still driving, didn't see any problems after. Any suggestions on what that may be ?
...."17:36", thanks for the info. as always. Considering buying a 2009 GL 450 today.
During a test drive the tranny felt like it was in low gear due to the sound and pull of the engine, not to mention the "reverse" gear limitations ....speed reduction.
Informative I sent you a question I just need to no before taking it in for service I had new tires and brakes installed after my abs and SRS light came on sand then my transmission will not shift out of low
Nice Video thanks. Is this method is vital If I have jerkiness when normal driving in D mode? (I have hard shifting 1-2/2-1)
1736. Please show us how to do a complete transmission service for your ML350 bro. Would love to learn !!!
thank you, how to check transmission fluid, also, what oil.
Hey Man, How is it going, i have a Gl500 2012 around 80K miles and the problem i have is when accelerating from stop to over 4000 rpms the vehicle feels like cut communication while shifting between 1st to 2nd gear ... any idea what might be the solution .. thank you
1736 this guys knows his stuff thank you
1736. Yes on a transmission service. Many have done these but we want to see your method.
Thanks for that,but how to shift with paddle manually?l
Please I need your help, my W202 gear is irregular, and often jack when changing gear on motion, sometimes the gear changes from high to low gear when on top speed without peddling the throttle for more speed. Please what's the cause of all this.
Nice information good job
1736 I am going to try this as my Mercedes C Class when cold make a slight jump between 2nd & 3rd when cold as soon as it warms up it seems ok? so will give your remedy a try thanks
Keith - how is this different from another method I am seeing right now where you get in car, turn key on to position 2 (not started), make sure AC/Lights/Radio off, depress gas peddle all the way and hold for a bit (can't remember how long), let up on gas, turn key off and then wait 5 minutes before starting and driving. I might have some of this procedure wrong from my memory but you get the idea.
Sounds doable. I have an 06S 55 AMG. The only issue I have is downshifting from 2nd to 1st seems a little hard so I’m gonna try this and I’ll get back to you.
Did you tried? Mine does the same downshift from 2 to 1 i can feel something under my seat like a little hit
@@osm0077 not yet I’m cleaning the breathers and putting in new vac lines.
My friend at MERCEDES says the only transmission reset for pre 2010 vehicles is the engine key to position II, floor accelerator for 30secs, turn key back to off, release accelerator then wait two mins, never heard of this.
Just had the two speed sensors changed in transmission due to clunky changes and getting stuck in limp mode. Used to have to do the reset method every few days til it no longer worked and car was stuck in 2nd gear.
Your friends at mercedes aren't sharing everything with you.
Thinking mine needs a new speed sensor is it true they can get dirty? Just had oil change still bit slight over rev?
Mobile Disco Wirral they’re plastic and located in the transmission so just go bad. After changing mine in March car drove fine for 3 months then transmission developed yet another problem 3months later with clutches. Would advice change those two speed sensors if your cars jolting into D/R or jamming in 2nd gear..then sell the car as fast as you can.
Once bitten twice shy my 2007 CLK has been a money pit, once somethings fixed something else goes wrong.
Just moved to Audi A5 cab ..hoping Keith gets an Audi so can continue to watch his great videos for when things start going wrong 😂
They can, depending on environment. They 99% of the time just fail due to heat and vibration.
If the channel community buys one for the channel, I'll do videos on it. 🤓
My clk550 2007 is shifting 1and 2 nd only . ABS light is on I replaced rear wheels speed sensor no change I did the oil change and level is ok . They used valvoline oil for Mercedes trany do you think the oil is the problem ? Next I m replacing the front wheels sensor
Hi I just bought an 06 ML500 and would like to know if you’re able to speak with me about my car? I have many questions about this car and you’re very knowledgeable about this car!!
Actually worked.
Thanks for ur videos. I have an 06 ml500 with abt 140k miles but the transmission will not engage when shifting into drive or reverse. It seems to be in constant neutral. It will shift, but not engage. Any thoughts or what I sh look for in scan. Thanks. Rick B
Awesome work. I have a 2011 ML350. Where can I send a question?
I have a cla 220 amg line 2016 I did a resert on my 7g gearbox automatic and now when I turn on my ignition the auto meters don't move forward and back is that normal to happen?
Am experiencing hard shifting from gear 1 to 2 but shifts smoothly in other gears.. I just did a transmission replacement on my GL 450 would this reset work on it?
I have a 2005 Mercedes e320 and I e had my gearbox oil changed filter and gasket changed even reset my transmission and my gears seem to take long to change it's like it's stretching my gears out before changing any ideas or recommendations on how to fix this ?
Great videos I got a question for you My SRS light is on and it says low voltage squib to driver side passenger seat and I clear it and it keeps coming back do you know how to fix that problem thanks
Which transmission does this work for?
I'm sure someone probably asked this question before, but I have an automatic 2000 ML320 that shifts rough from 1st to 2nd. Is this procedure the same for automatic?
Is it necessary to do this every day ?
Thank you sir👍
Hi..my 2010 ml350 is kind od vibrating sometimes when i try to take off..is like dosent have enough power..took it back to shop, they checked the oil transmission cause they have changed days before this...but they said it was fine, but still vibrate so the mechanic said i need a new transmission that will cost 4 to 5000..
Have a question about something different, was hoping you can help me.
I have to replace the center lid cluster, do you have a link for this installation..
I too have a mercedes benz ml350 and my problem is that it won't shift from 1st gear to 2nd gear. what can i do. It goes into reverse just fine, but sometimes i have to stop and shut the car off, then wait a few minutes and then start the car again, then the transmission has a tendency to do a hard kick into gear and then i can shift from 1st to 2nd but not it doesn't even want to move from first gear. Have any suggestions.
Hello thanks for your video ! I have problem since last week when i start the car and drive before stopping the gear push ? can you help me ? my car is mercedes w204 C200 year 11/2011 thanks
Hi is the transmission shifting reset can be done for 2006 E350 4 matic??
Also I have a big jerk while Imake a shift between drive and reverse and clunk sound.
I checked bot front and rear flexible couplings, only transfer case coupling, Universal joint and centering bearing is balance.
Hello, I have a technical question, I own a 2007 ML350 4MATIC with 123,000 miles, I have problem, once or twice a month my transmission does not shift to drive. coming out of my driveway on reverse, no problem but when I shift to drive it does not shift, I have to turn it on and off a few times shifting from park to drive or neutral to drive, after a few times it does engage, after that it works ok for a week or two. I will try to reset it the way you showed on this video to see if solves my problem. Please let me know if you have an idea how to fix it. Thank you.
