I’ve found that more often than not FCP’s free shipping gets things to me as fast or faster than the paid option.
I saw this today on FB marketplace and messaged the guy. No word back yet: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1282151905538067/ 2008 ML550. “Needs a little work” according to the seller. Says it shifts poorly from 1-2, but the ATF is low and they don’t have time to top it off. At first I thought this was a red herring, but then I remembered that the 722.9 trannys have to be filled from the pan with a pump and the fill adapter, right? -D > On Jun 26, 2021, at 8:26 AM, Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > I ordered 2 transmission service kits for the $900E500 and $1200ML500 > Thursday evening.
