Which other year and models share the same transmission as the 500e and e500's? Do the r129 and s-class 500 serioes cars use the same transmission as the 500e's? Explaination? Thanks
The early 500SEL/S500 uses the identical transmission. The 93-95 500SL/SL500 doesn't have the identical trans, but it's close enough that it would work fine.
No problems what so ever. It was more of a refrence related question. I have heard of people replacing their trannies with sl trannies. Just wondering if those sl trannies can be modified with fgs valve bodies too, et. Heck my tranny is read to go race szvook on race day and give him a run for his money.
