    you will need a good local MB specialty shop that has the
    MB-specific software to diagnose this issue. they will likely find speed sensor #3 error, which is part of the "electrics plate" above the valve body in the transmission. if this is the case, expect about $700 including the tranny filter, fluid, pan gasket, plug update
    and labor.
