Some Mercedes-Benz E320 owners report experiencing transmission failure characterized by noise from the front pump and loss of motion in all gears. These issues may indicate severe internal damage or malfunction within the transmission system, necessitating prompt attention to avoid further damage and costly repairs. Owners have noted difficulties with gear shifting and a complete inability to move the vehicle in any gear, which signals a critical transmission problem. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent such catastrophic failures, and checking the transmission fluid level and quality can help identify potential issues early on. It is advisable for owners to consult a qualified mechanic or transmission specialist for accurate diagnosis and necessary repairs, including potential conductor plate replacement, to resolve these transmission concerns efficiently. Addressing these problems early can ultimately save owners from more expensive repair bills in the future.
