Hello Guys

I am Dinos, I am new to the forum. I have a Mercedes A170

I have problem with the gearbox i think. The car wont move or reverse as it should.

I need to press the gas slowly slowly until it start moving (take about 12-15 seconds).
If i press the petal too fast then it start moving but it is kinda confused, it accelerates very fast and shakes.

Anyway i put it on a Diagnosis machine an got the following errors:

I get the following error codes:Petrol (266.940 - SIM266 - MT/AT - 169.032/332)

Yes would agree a transmission problem. From codes seems major hydraulic pressure loss would suspect worn or torn oil seals ie. Internal.Codes stating condition Permanent indicate internal failure. Need to tow into dealer or competent trans repair shop

Possible but more likely piston seals in the clutch packs
