G Klasse Diesel Transmission Issues
Summary of the thread
A 2019 Mercedes G Klasse diesel is experiencing transmission issues, with the transmission indicator and check engine lights on, and the transmission in emergency mode. The problem includes slipping shifts and occasional grinding noises, with codes suggesting a radiator oil pressure issue. A faulty connection is suspected, and after professional diagnostics, it was confirmed to be a defective cable connection, which was resolved by cleaning the contacts and securing the plug.

Thanks for the quick response When you had this issue on the BMW did the error appear intermittently at first I'm wondering if it's worth trying to clean the contacts before I consider a full radiator repair Also which sensor was it exactly and was it easy to access

Affirmative the error was indeed intermittent initially preceding a permanent failure state Regarding your course of action I must strongly suggest conducting a thorough diagnostic process by a qualified technician Attempting to resolve the matter without professional assistance carries inherent risks While I cannot offer guidance on the precise sensor location on your specific vehicle I can reiterate that professional intervention is advisable

I am familiar with similar symptoms on a different make In my case with an older BMW the root cause analysis also indicated issues with transmission behavior and radiator pressure readings It would be advisable to verify the integrity of the wiring harness and connectors associated with the radiator pressure sensor Has the radiator coolant level been checked recently
