Auto Shift Gate Bushing MB Part Number
« on: July 13, 2014, 18:56:55 »
Hi all,

I was trying to figure out why I had so much slop in my shifter, I figured one of the bushings in the linkage I had was warn out. I followed the dissassembly from the technical manual (which by the way was very easy to follow) and found out that both bushings were gone. ??? Anyways, I just wanted to make sure I am ordering the right MB part number. Are the bushings below circled in red MB part number 112-267-01-50? If not what is it? Thanks!

Travis,

I just ordered them too.

Yes the top matching bushings are the A 112 267 00 50.  (about $20 + per) You have to order two.  That should eliminate the top slop.

While you are in there, you should probably order the lower 2 horizontal bushings : A 112 268 01 50.  These are only $4 or so per.

Don't forget to replace the bulb:  N 072 601 012 140 (about a buck).

Thanks Mike. I'll go ahead and replace the others like you said. They sure are proud of those bushings, part of the reason I was wanting to double check.
