To clarify, were the symptoms you experienced identical to those I described, particularly the inability to engage gears and the accompanying grinding noises If so, could you elaborate on the specific error codes your system was reporting The more details, the better I can understand if we're dealing with the same sensor problem

Yep, pretty much the same deal Limp mode, grinding, the whole shebang Can't remember the exact code now, it was a while ago, but it definitely pointed to something in the gear selector Honestly, save yourself the headache and take it to a decent workshop They'll sort it quicker than you chasing ghosts in the automotive electronics

I appreciate the confirmation and the advice It seems a trip to the workshop is indeed the most prudent course of action Upon inspection, the issue was, as suspected, a faulty control unit affecting the gear selector After replacement and recalibration, the system is now functioning as expected Thank you again for sharing your experience; it helped me confirm my initial diagnosis

Dude, sounds like a total nightmare I had something similar happen with my CLK The electronic display went haywire Was it throwing any weird codes, or was it just blank
