96 2.8 Engine ECU or Gearbox fault and cause? - Davy Maclean
Just picked up a '96 C class 280 auto petrol at the auction tonight for £500 with 80k on the clock pulled away from the place OK driving along fine until it gets to the 50mph mark and it seems like it will not go into 5th once it gets to the 50-60mph area it starts to "bunny hop" engine revving up and down will not go past the 60 mark and revs to 6000rpm gearbox fault or ECU issue?
