My 2011 MB E350 will not shift into gear after changing the transmission fluid, guide tube and filter. Is there a reset procedure or what could cause it to not shift?
I ordered parts online from a reputable supplier and asked about ATF. They
shipped both fluids with a guide tube, gasket and filter. I drained the fluid,
cleaned the pan, installed the filter, and reassembled using the new gasket.
Then I filled the transmission with fluid and started the engine to let it heat
the fluid. After letting it heat to operating temp, I topped it off with fluid and
removed the drain plug to see if there was overflow. No fluid came out so I
reinstalled the plug and tried to shift into gear. I can hear it shifting, but it
does not engage. Did I use the wrong fluid? Is there a reset process for the
transmission?
