Does anyone has any idea what is the problem with my 96 C230, when I change to reverse gear, it will not go reverse, I need to change shift a few time to work. But all other gear is normal. Is it a big problem?

I had a similar problem.
It turned out to be the locking screw comng loose on the linkage rod at the gearbox end.My mechanic took 10mins to adjust it.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your info. I called my workshop yesterday and they told me maybe the same reason that you have, hope it is the case, I will have it checked tomorrow. BTW, what is the repairing cost?
