i've recently bought a W140 S280 (1998) and I need to change the gear selector as the lever won't move across from D to 4 to allow manual selection of the gears.
Does anyone know if it is a common part? From what I can see they all had the same 5sp auto-box. I wondering if one taken out of say a S420 will fit?

Thanks Niva. I've seen one at a breakers and they certainly look identical. I'll give it a punt.

Thanks - I got a used selector for £60 and its with a trusted and capable garage so it should hopefully work out.
