Transmission solinoids solved all my problems! - MBWorld.org Forums
We have the same tranny as the SRT8 and the hemi's so it looks like we should be able to use there tranny module. I am trying to get a company to set me up with one so I can test it for them and verify that it will work in our cars.
If you're talking about the silverbox module, it is not compatible with our cars. The tolerances in the Siemens unit is tighter in our cars than those in the LX body vehicles such as the Chargers and Magnums. I got the guy that makes them in touch with a local owner and they tried it out. Works fine on the stock setting but goes into limp mode in any other setting. Still waiting to hear back from another company that has made a stand alone TCM for the Mercedes cars with this same transmission so that might be promising albeit more expensive but with what we are limited to, I'd be happy to se anything come our way.
DJ, are you going to do the blue tops in conjunction with your valvebody upgrade?
