Sad Craigslist Story: 2005 C55 AMG
Today’s Sad Craigslist story comes from another German marquee. On Today’s file, we have the case of the failing transmission on a 2005 C55 AMG.
Under the hood, the C55 AMG is powered by a 5.4-liter V8 engine that delivers a whopping 362 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a five-speed automatic transmission that allows for smooth and effortless shifting. The car can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.7 seconds, making it one of the fastest cars in its class.
However, one major downside to the 2005 Mercedes Benz C55 AMG is its poor reliability. Owners have reported several issues with the car, including electrical problems, transmission failures, and engine issues. These problems can be costly to repair and may require frequent trips to the mechanic.
This one already has gotten a first and second opinion, with no clear answers. It does come with an extra transmission. So perhaps you can do the job. How hard can it be? And all you need is $7,000 to find out.
