C34 Cheap Transmission Fix? Or Car For Sale

[stock stagea]

Hey guys I just bought a new car and the stagea must have known and got her feelings hurt?. Gearbox has gone into limp mode, ran the diagnostic and says that a soleniode is not working. So what I am looking for is a cheap way to fix the problem before I sell it. Or if someone wants to buy it with the problem I am willing to let it go real cheap. Like I said I have already bought he new car and delivery is at the end of this month so just want to get rid of it.

Probably best way is to swap out a known good box from someone who has done a manual conversion. I took mine to the scrap dealer but you would probably pay in the range of $1 to $200 for one. Or you could try an oil change and hope that might do it.

No worries

All you need is the valve body, no need to swap the box... I have an auto here also.

Send it to MV and get a shift kit fitted before you swap it over.

Not real savy on autos, is the soleniode part of the valve body? Like I mentioned I have already purchased a new car ( Mercedes cla250 ) which will be delivered by the end of the month, am looking for the cheapest and easiest fix so that I can sell it off fast or even trade it in for the $4000 they offered me for it.

Hey there did you trade in this car. I'm wondering if I bought it? White with black leather?
