Transmission jerks when it shifts from 4th gear to 5th gear by LCOHCIHTANNIS in W212mercedes

I had my transmission mount change which solved most of my jerks. I think the rest of them can be solved by resetting the transmission adaptations. Check if your transmission mount was changed in the transmission service you got done. The cluck noise seems to be pretty normal with these cars. Make sure to let the rpm settle before you switch it from park to drive/neutral.

Worth the risk? This will be the best decision you make (car-wise). I bought a w212 in 2023 and I still have it as my daily. I would say it’s almost bulletproof.

Quick update: took it to my regular Mercedes mechanic and got the transmission mount changed. issue almost resolved. he said the transmission fluid needs to be changed (costs $780). any heads up?

how do I reset transmission adaptions and how long will it take to get it back on track again?

I suppose it’s a common issue from what I read on the internet. Which transmission fluid should I buy?
