Some words from our happy customers

Being a Merc owner with a W202 97 C class c230, my old key was beginning to die a slow death until it packed up 2 days ago, at a shopping center. Not able to get back into the car, i asked the Merc dealership down the road to assist, and they told me a new key would cost 3900 and 3 weeks to arrive. With no such time on my hands, I found Merc keys and had such great customer service and assistance from them. 2 hours later my car was up and running with a new key. Thanks again.

FAQs

What does a TCM do?

A transmission control module (or transmission control unit) is an electronic component typically used in automatic gearboxes to process information within the transmission.

How can I tell if my TCM is broken?

A major sign that your transmission control module may be faulty is if you’re having trouble accelerating or your Mercedes-Benz is slow to get up to speed.

Other indicators are if your vehicle gets stuck in neutral, jumps out of gear whilst you’re driving, or refuses to switch up or down gears.

This is generally accompanied by an increase in fuel consumption as the engine must work harder than usual, meaning a drop in fuel economy.

Is it essential to get my TCM fixed?

If you suspect a fault with your transmission control module, we recommend taking care of it as soon as possible. This will prevent further damage within the module, potentially saving you added expenses down the road. Also, there is a significant risk of it failing whilst you’re driving, affecting your ability to control the vehicle safely.
