Re: [diesel_mercedes] Having trouble getting into drive mode

 

What year of SD300? (different tranny in '85 CA models)
When was it last serviced?

Best check the easy stuff 1st:
Trans fluid level
Trans fluid condition, red & clean, or brown, smells burnt, metal flakes???
Shift linkage, is it really in drive, or is something loose and thus
only looks like it's in drive?

If everything seems normal you may need to drain a bit from the pan, to
see if there's metal flakes.
