Issues with the E63 AMG MCT gearbox
Paulinelinker replied to Paulinelinker's topic in General Discussions
Can somebody provide the accurate component number for the 2009/2010 MCT? The part number I possess is A221 250 03 01. -

Prior to this, I had a total of 722,636 units from the W211 E55. -

I have successfully fitted an E63 MCT gearbox into my W202 C43. -

My next course of action would be to take it to an automotive gearbox expert. -

I suspect that the issue lies with the MCT, but I want absolute certainty. It is worth noting that a defective MCT will not generate a failure code. -

The gearbox I placed in my vehicle has no known history, save that it has been driven for 54,000 miles and has been well-maintained. I also performed a gearbox service when I installed it. -

The software on the TCU has been upgraded. However, local independent mechanics lack knowledge and are speculating on the issue, with one suggesting it is related to the gearbox and another suggesting it is related to the MCT. Both are just guessing, and I am reluctant to spend money on such uncertain diagnoses. -

There are no fault codes present, and the gearbox has been maintained. The issue occurs more often when the vehicle is in S or S+ mode, namely when the accelerator is fully pressed. However, if the vehicle is driven normally, the issue does not occur. The jerking motion might be forceful. -
I am experiencing a problem with the MCT gearbox on my 2010 E63. Currently, there are no error messages shown on either the gearbox or the engine control unit (ECU). The gearbox exhibits abrupt movements when shifting between gears 2 and 1, or 1 and 2, as well as while accelerating forcefully. However, during regular driving, the gearbox operates smoothly up to the 7th gear. Additionally, there is a tendency for the vehicle to go forward when it is stopped and in drive, even with the foot on the brake. Do you have any insights about the issue?

A staggered configuration, where bigger tyres are often used on the rear, is a prevalent practice. In order to verify the accuracy of the tyre sizes, please provide us with the specific model of your BMW. However, anticipate receiving several suggestions to discard the runflat tyres. Personally, I strongly support them.

The much-feared rebirth has now come.

Last year, I had a contract with MoreThan for a total cost of £460. They have discontinued their vehicle insurance services and transferred me to Swinton upon renewal. Swinton provided a quotation of £2760. Saga requested around £3300. Currently, the price of Admiral is £856. -
Greetings, everybody. I intend to remove the model identification off the rear of my vehicle. I am inquiring about the most optimal approach to do this task. Specifically, what is the most effective method to eliminate the remaining residue without using a mechanical device? Thank you in advance.

I often provide positive feedback on impressive automobiles, especially those made by Mercedes-Benz, and I consistently get favourable reactions. I possess the ability to quickly and accurately assess if someone is approachable or compatible for engaging in conversation or humour. My judgements in this regard are often accurate. Evidently, CyberNinja made an error on this occasion, the wretched individual.

p0296 / I believe I have tried every possible solution...

At cold engine, the temperatures and barometric pressure should nearly resemble the ambient outside temperatures. The barometric pressure is determined by the location where you reside. An alternative approach would be to capture screenshots of all the content and thereafter share it on this platform. Additionally, I would examine the fuel trims. First, do a Key-On Engine-Off (KOEO) test. Then, observe the engine's behaviour at idle while it is in closed loop mode. Additionally, monitor the engine at about 2500rpm to get insight into the current situation. -

Regarding the R50, I am uncertain. However, in our case, there exists a bleed valve located at the end of the fuel rail. Connect to this valve and proceed to prime the system. -

Paulinelinker replied to MrGreedy's topic in General Discussions
It is important to consider examining real-time data, particularly in frigid conditions, to see whether the temperatures, barometric pressure, and other factors are reasonable. There may be an error in the reporting. Subsequently, what are the fuel pressure measurements at the prime, idle, and wide open throttle conditions? Are these values credible? -

Okay, there are no air leaks that are not being measured. -

Paulinelinker replied to MrGreedy's topic in General Discussions
The system is experiencing a lean condition. I recommend doing a smoke test to identify any potential leaks that may be causing the introduction of unmeasured air. -
Mercury I have just installed it.

I admire people who are able to pose such questions. -
One specific component that I am considering is the auxiliary drive belt, which requires annual replacement. Is that included inside the expense of the service? Another aspect that caught my attention is if the presence of Kia-exclusive components and fluids would significantly restrict the support that breakdown services like Green Flag can provide. Does this imply that there will be no alternative but to have your vehicle transported to a Kia dealership even for a very minor mechanical failure?

When I said the 'magic fluids,' I was specifically referring to the enigmatic coolant fluid that is only available for purchase from Kia. It is most likely to be a product that is widely available, however they attempt to create the perception that it is exclusively their own, allowing them to set the price at their discretion.
