Re: 2007 SWB CDI 7 G Tronic,

This is a common fault in the 722.9 7G-Tronic MB gearboxes that affects various models not just the G Wagon, once they have exceeded 50,000 miles. 

The problem seems to be cured only by the replacement of the auto box valve body. MB were doing this under warranty and may give you a contribution if your vehicle is out of warranty.

Obviously you might want to try having any fault codes checked and replacing the transmission fluid and filter etc first.

If you go onto the MB forums and search you will find plenty of info about the problem.
