Wow...does he have no idea how you are supposed to treat a car or what?
Flooring with no load? moving around gears while the car is in motion?
There are countless things he could have f'd up. You shouldn't do that
with any car, especially not a 15 year old Benz with an automatic
transmission. I say you take it to a shop, have them diagnose it, and
have him pay for everything.

Subject: [W126 Coupe] is my trans going bad?


I'm19 and i have been driving my 560SEC for about a year as i got it
from my dad for my High School graduation present. Right now i have
without a doubt the best car in College :). Anyway im writing this
because i have an issue with my Benz. Last week lent my car to my cousin
to drive to school since i'm already out and had no work that day. Well
when i got it back that night the car jerks when i move it to Drive.
>From Park to Drive it jerks a bit but from Nutural to Drive he makes
alot of noise and jerks hard.  From what i was told by his friend today
was he was racing a 92 Honda Prelude with it(which i he said he won). He
told me right before the race he was showing off by putting the car on
Nutrual and flooring the gas peddle, so the car engin is rouring loudly
and moving around because of the big engine. And he said that when he
switches gears he wasnt holding on the break to change gears but was
playing around and moving it to R to D to N over and over without
stoping it.  I was told the engin even cut off when doing it.  Its been
a month and it jerks like hell but when driving theres nothing wrong.
Is the the trans or something else?
