Hi how are you ? Thank you for your beautiful, informative videos... I have a big problem. After changing the board, testing the solenoids without pressurizing, complete disassembly of the valves, installation of Sonnax, draining of new BVA and converter...connector to controller, my problem remains the same...box in degraded mode and not more than 3000 revolutions.... It goes from D to R with jerk and does not shift gears... I cannot pressure test the solenoids.... thank you for your help...

To remove the adapter plug to the connector to the conductor plate, do the transmission pan need to be removed first,

You'll want to drain the fluid first so as not to make a mess, but the pan can stay on

hey friend, id be really grateful if you can help me out. i was working on a w210 om606 with 722.6 transmission and i had it running for maybe 10 minutes without transmission fluid, which i didnt know at the time. it was in neutral almost the entire time, but i tried to put it in drive and revved it a couple times. it it possible that did some damage or does it have any kind of safety due to low pressure or something? i would really appreciate a response, thank you. cheers!

[@ColtonAngermeier]

Very informative video, thanks for posting! I have a ‘99 C230 Kompressor with 297k miles on the original transmission. Only issue I’m noticing is harder shifts when cold, especially 1-2. I’m planning to order the service kit you offer including the conductor plate, etc., but my question is with the high miles do you recommend getting fresh solenoids as well? What else is a good idea to refresh while in there? I do not know when the transmission was serviced last. Thanks!

[@fcpeuro]

Hi Colton! We love a good W202! Fluid, filter and conductor plate will generally be good as far as general preventative maintenance goes, assuming you don't have any codes at the moment. If you've noticed shifts flaring between gears, then you may want to consider adding on any/all of the overlap sleeve and spring upgrade kits for the valve body mentioned in this video. If the car is driving normally aside from that 1-2 shift, I wouldn't rush into doing the shift solenoids. The behavior you're noting is somewhat typical of a TCC lock-up solenoid (2402701700) showing its age in a colder climate, often resulting in a very hard feeling "shift" as the converter locks in first gear, followed by an actual shift to second gear moments later. This is an easy "while you're in there," and is relatively inexpensive, whereas replacing the solenoids can quickly tally up to a hefty bill. Hope this helps! Let us know how the car drives following your service. -Danny

Whats the part number and where can i find the new overlap sleeves?

[@HearGear]

Last summer i changed the conductorplate on my 2009 W204 with 722.6 5G tronic but the gearbox still not working properly so i need to change the solenoids and the overlap sleeves to because i think thats the problem, have have two modes on the gearbox, C and S, it will not shift at all in mode C but it is possible to drive the car in mode S only if starting from zero very gently or else it will not shift to second gear. Once it shifts to second gear it works just fine in mode S, until i park and turn of the engine and start it up again, same thing, need to start from zero very gentle. No error codes at all. Once the second gear is in and the oil starts to get warm it works great with kickdowns and shifting properly i mode S. Only gear one seem to work in mode C. Question: Would i replace all solenoids and the three overlap sleeves, or just a few solenoids + all sleeves ?

[@fcpeuro]

Hi HearGear! For a 722.6, we'll always recommend double-checking the fluid level as a first course of action, just due to the strange characteristics these gearboxes can exhibit when slightly over- or under-filled. Make sure you're checking it at the Mercedes-recommended 80-deg C. We only got the 722.9 for the W204 here, so yours is a bit of an interesting case. When you replaced parts previously, did you find any debris in the transmission pan? Additionally, did you reset any existing codes when you replaced the conductor plate? I don't believe overlap sleeves are part of the equation in this instance, as issues pertaining to that part of the valve body will generally result in flaring between gear changes. Let me know! -Danny

[@HearGear]

@@fcpeuro There was no codes in the first place, the level is spot on at 80C, when i bought the car the previous owner had the car for oilchange at a Mercedes dealer car-repairshop so the level was good also before i changed the conductor plate. There was no debris in the pan, when it shifts from gear 1 to 2 its a slight delay like you mentioned in this video, as the engine coming up to temperature the gears in S mode shifts perfect when driving. Most i am thinking the Solenoids because the gearbox does not work at all in Comfort mode, only gear 1, if i am lucky i might get it to shift to second gear it i am super super gentle on the acceleration. Thanks

[@damionstoen2596]

So just to confirm the dipstick that you sell for the 722.6 isnt an actual dipstick but a tool to check the fluid level? I need to do a trans service on my 02 c230k as its throwing a couple transmission codes and shifts poorly if it isnt getting stuck. I was given this car and i dont know if the trans was ever serviced

[@fcpeuro]

That's correct, the dipstick (FEB-38023 on our site) is solely for checking fluid level and gets removed once you've got your level situated. If the dipstick cap has never been touched before, you may have to break off the red locking pin to remove the transmission tube fill cap to insert your dipstick (though the black tube cap pops right back on top of the tube without the locking pin if you're just checking the level, and our kit includes a new locking pin if you're servicing). As Mercedes generally coins these as "lifetime fill," I wouldn't be surprised if it's due for fluid and a filter as many 722.6 cars are. Don't forget to clear the transmission codes following your service and before you go for the first drive!

excellent video, I have the same gearbox on the ml 270 TD, it works perfectly both hot and cold, no vibrations, 290 thousand km, I changed the oil, filter and plug, everything is ok but the only problem is between 3rd and 4th gear there is a delay grafting. sometimes it goes up by a few rpm, sometimes by 400/500, sometimes it goes well. They tell me it's a very common problem, what do you think?

[@fcpeuro]

I'd give the valve body a bit of love whenever you replace the conductor plate in the future! The 3-to-4 shift is the toughest one for these transmissions and will almost always flare a bit when these are tuned. What you're experiencing may very well just be typical behavior of an older 722.6, but replacing the overlap sleeves as we did in this video with the Sonnax kit can definitely help.

[@Spidepig09]

At what mileage would you recommend changing the conductor plate? Mine has 184000km, and trans has been serviced at 61000km and 150000km

[@fcpeuro]

Hi there Spidepig09! Pending the frequency of fluid/filter services and driving style, the conductor plate can be good for as long as 200,000 miles in some cases (~320,000km). Yours has been serviced a good deal more than the vast majority of these "lifetime-filled" transmissions which bodes very well for its longevity. This being said, the worst way to figure out that it's time for a conductor plate replacement is when you're trying to drive somewhere and it isn't cooperating. I'd generally recommend replacing the conductor plate every 100,000-120,000 miles (160,000-190,000km) to be sure that it doesn't leave you stuck on the side of the road. Additionally, check to make sure you don't have transmission fluid entering the TCM through the pilot bushing! It's unfortunately very common on the original factory pilot bushing, and can also strand you. The kit containing everything you need for the service is in the video description. -Danny

It isn't mandatory, but it's definitely a good idea to make sure you get any old/dirty fluid out of the system! Other angles if you don't have the CTA-7650 tool can be to drain the torque converter (removed more fluid from the system than draining from the pan) or adding another fluid/filter change into the mix a little while after your service, to get any of the residual dirty fluid flushed out.

Hello Troy. What mileage is your Jeep at, and have you ever had the transmission fluid/filter replaced? Often, odd shift behavior on a 722.6 is a byproduct of the "lifetime fluid" losing lubricity/viscosity over time. A fluid and filter change may work wonders here. -Danny

[@kyeyunecharles9231]

FCP, we appreciate your time and work, thank you very much... Am driving a w203 Mercedese Year 2001, but am still confused on how many liters of oil do i have to put in my transmission. I did my gear box service, changed the oil, oil filter, seal and the Automatic Transmission Conductor Adapter Plug and now my car does not change gears. What could be the problem ? Thanks for your support.

[@fcpeuro]

Hi there! A couple of possibilities here, but a good first step would be scanning the transmission to see what codes exist. A first step would be to use your 722.6-specific oil dipstick to check your fluid level (we have a video about how to check the fluid level on your 722.6 with Kyle if you're uncertain), as a low fluid level will almost always result in either an inability to move forward or a "limp mode" when trying to gain speed. Fluid on refill can vary from several liters if you do a full drain like I did with the CTA tool, to around 4 if you did not. From there, I'd recommend backtracking. Make sure the plug for the transmission computer is fully seated and the TCU itself doesn't have any fluid inside of the plugs. If all of these are done and the car still won't drive, you may want to consider dropping the pan again to make sure that the shifting dowel pin is slotted back into the shifter bracket. Most commonly though, the cause of this is too little fluid. It's very common for owners to complete the service, refill the transmission, start the vehicle and go for a drive. With each time the vehicle shifts and the converter engages/disengages, fluid will circulate and the level will drop. This is why there's a recommended procedure to the fluid refill. Hope this helps! -Danny

[@falklan]

I have a simple question if I may. 2003 ML500 and I grabbed a Mopar 722.6 TC Lockup Solenoid a bit cheaper as it's the exact same transmission withstanding the TC perhaps. That TC lockup solenoid should fit and function properly on my ML correct? I also grabbed a Transgo shift kit and I'm purchasing an aftermarket modified TCM. This truck is going to tow the city I reside in right! Since I've gone into the transmission anyway, I went with a WIX filter/seal and AMSOIL Sig. ATF/eng. oil. Concerning AMSOIL, I am quite the skeptic about their signature engine oil. It may be fully synthetic but I'm going to confirm or reject that 25k mile oil change they tout. Don't worry, fluids are checked every week, and if the engine oil becomes abrasive, it's getting changed and the mileage will be documented.

[@fcpeuro]

Hi there falktv1! As a good "Step One," I'd verify that the Mopar TCC solenoid is the exact same part as the Mercedes part number linked in the description of this video. Yes, the 722.6 was used across a host of Mopar and Mercedes vehicles, but you'll still want to make sure the part you're installing moves the same amount of fluid as the one Mercedes programs for. The Transgo shift kit paired with a TCM tune will be lovely, both for towing and for general driveability. The 5-speed works quite well one woken up a bit. We're always going to recommend using a Mercedes-approved filter and, pointedly, a Mercedes BEVO-rated ATF134 fluid in your transmission, as not going so can cause accelerated wear and damage. Changing fluid ahead of the recommended interval is never a bad idea, so long as the correct fluid is put back in! We have service kits as well as part numbers in the description of this video that will contain everything you need. Best of luck with your service! -Danny

[@falklan]

@@fcpeuro One year later and I've been attempting to find specific information on these upgraded pressure solenoids. This information would be helpful in both calculating the increased towing capacity and also helpful with the Ult. NAG52 TCM project. Do you know the spring tension in the upgraded solenoids? Do you know the tension of the OEM solenoids? Thanks for the initial feedback! I ultimately went back to the OEM TCC solenoid just to be certain without worrying about compatibility of the Mopar part.

Great video. love my 1998 W210 E320 but my 722.6 has been dumping hard into 3rd and sometimes (when cold) not going into 3rd at all. And once in a while sticking in 3rd. After it goes through the gears a couple times it works fine. This video was so informative, I know so much more about how my transmission works and I know to perform this service if I feel it will solve the issues. I'm off the Merc. mechanic to get a proper scan. And then hopefully I get to wrench on my transmission instead of replacing it. wish me luck.

Best of luck with this endeavor, Adam!

I HAVE JUST RELACED MY CONDUDTOR PLATE AND DISCOVERED THE PLACTIC HOODS OVER THE SOLENOIDS ARE MISSING! this is on a T1N sprinter. Is this a problem and does anyone have a part# for the hoods? Thx gb

[@coreypuck3295]

Not a problem.

Excellent video and workmanship.. you mentioned standalone ECU,, have you heard of anyone adding this tranny to another car with a standalone ECU, and work fine? What does it need to communicate to allow to work? Thanks and cheers

Hello, I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee 2007 WH (European model) with DGU 5-Spd Auto W5J400 transmission. I have a problem switching gears from 2nd to 3rd only, it hesitates doing it and when is doing the rev ramps above 3500 rot/min. That is the only symptom. Any idea what might be? the 2-3 shift solenoids? thank you!

[@natarajtribino456]

will the blue top solenoids work on a 1999 c230 kompressor ?

[@rtownsend744brad]

Where's the link to the torque converter lock up solenoid?

[@fcpeuro]

We've added the link to the TCC solenoid in the description! Thanks for the catch.

I have a C320 I bought the plate from FCP euro but it's still limp mode does that mean my solenoids are bad it's not shifting to 1 or 2 it makes the speedometer go to 0 to back to the same speed and it keeps going crazy and feel like the car wants to turn off and at the light it does it so bad sometimes when I have my foot on the pedal the car makes a loud noise like its stuck i just need some help I have a 2001 C320

A crucial next step will be to scan the car and transmission for any fault codes. If any are pointing toward the transmission, make sure you check the fluid level as well; it's very common for the fluid level to drop substantially during the first drive after a service.
