Nissan and Mercedes were both sued over a major factory defect that could leave owners stranded and with a massive repair bill. Nissan settled their lawsuit but Mercedes didn't. In this video I show the horrible defect that caused major transmission issues, what to do about it and what happened with the lawsuits.

Nissan super reliable? Really 😂😂😂
I wonder how much backlash you got for this,, even knowing your love for the Merc.
Mercury Villager van race vs your ride
Toyota too suffered from this… The 3rd gen 4runner loved!!, Emphasis on love milkshakes.
I love the video sir 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you sir …i did not now dies informations.. let me ask you this by the way…my cousin have a LX 2001 Isuzu automatic transmission, 6 cylinders. It shut down every time enven when it's running…still can't find the problem..do you have a idea what can cause that sir
Is this series dead?
Autotransmission oil should dielectric while coolant in radiator is glycol & water mixture + antirust. What about putting a sensitive sensor at drain sump of autotransmittion and link to a external gauge in dash board. This way it is able to display detection of water (being part of the coolant mixture) as soon as leakage had just started. To me bypassing the radiator to an external oil cooler for transmittion oil looks like a good idea as long as the car is not operating in area which have winter condition. Imagine in winter the autotransmittion oil could be as low as -10 deg C. Upon starting up the transmittion oil need to able to go up towards 50 deg C asap. But once it get up toward 100 deg C it need to be cooled down. The coolant section at bottom of radiator is normally at around 55 to 70 deg C. Perfect place to warm up transmittion oil in winter and for cooling down once approaching 100 deg C.

All volvo 850s from the 90s did this too. Both mine, and my buddies were leaking internally and mixing the fluids. Luckily it wasn't too far gone yet and a radiator replacement and a trans fluid flush was all it needed
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I will never buy anything new from Mercedes due to bad biz. No way. Never give Mercedes any more money never.
