It’s not at all. I’ve rebuilt domestic slushboxes some years back, and other than what you point out, it’s not a difficult job at all. It doesn’t even require any specialized tools for the most part, basically a good pair of expanding ring pliers.
If you had a place to do the work where you could lay everything out as you disassemble/reassemble it would be pretty simple. It’s mostly just popping clutches open, replacing the frictions and steels, bearings and seals, and putting everything back together. -D > On Oct 24, 2022, at 2:42 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes > <[email protected]> wrote: > > I haven't worked on a transmission it but seems to me the biggest things are > cleanliness and keeping track of all the parts.
