Hello everyone! I am at the beginning of a long journey to return automatic transmission to my car. Currently, a 5-speed manual transmission is installed. But! Initially, from the factory, there was an automatic with steering column controls. To replace it, I managed to find a complete car that was disassembled. In exactly the same configuration as my car,engine M110.922,transmission 722.100

However, I will continue. I received the motor with the box in an unconnected form. And completely everything that is necessary for installation. I will list: automatic transmission mounting brackets, driveshaft assembly,brake pedal,steering column with shift lever,all wiring from the car,instrument cluster with gearshift indicator. The automatic transmission had to be washed for quite a long time from a thick layer of oil dirt, after which it was removed from the engine. When I unscrewed the vacuum line from the modulator, oil started oozing out of the connection. Is this not normal?

The column shifting W116 is quite a rare option. It was never offered by the MB dealers here to my knowledge, although the two prime ministerial cars ordered by Gough Whitlam were column shifters.

Greetings to you! Yes, this is a fairly rare option, it was very often on early cars.

I hope that at least someone is interested in my story) The other day, I washed the gearbox from a thick layer of dirt and oil that was pouring from the engine. I completely disassembled and cleaned the steering column with an aquablast. Primed and painted, put semi-matt acrylic varnish on top. I re-galvanized the fasteners, lubricated and replaced the plastic washers in the switching mechanism.
