my mercedes benz is letting me down, the sprintshift on my 316 cdi quit working today ,i´t has been giving a little bit of problem getting out of neutral on cold mornings and today i´t gave me all sorts of errorcodes on the display (f and blinking N) and then stuck in second gear for a few km:s to the nearest stop on the highway and when i pulled in it shifted into N and that´s it.
i really appreciate some troubleshootinghelp.

my sprinter messed up, i got the interior washed when it got dirty and water got into the electrics under the seats, t wouldnt go in gear fater that so hadto change the pump and relay and ecu, it works ok now but gear changes arent tht smooth, i get crunching in the gears when the engine is cold once its warm its ok, to e honest the crunching has always been like that but since i had the new pumpin the crunchin got worse

hey guys, sorry to hear about your woes. i had the same problem on my sprinter. its caused by the relay that controls the hydraulic pump for changing gears. bosch superceeded the relay as it wasn't up to the job. on mine however i found out the hard way and have had my hydraulic pump replaced twice. the relay tends to make the pump pack up. it sounds like this has happened to both of your vehicles too. you might get away with just changing the relay, but i'd say your pump has had it too, sorry.
