I have a 2005 Mercedes CLK 500. I was driving the car and the car was started to not go into gear so parked it. Called a tow truck, once they put it on the truck, fluid started pouring out heavily. What could it be

Sounbds like you may have blown a trans cooler line. It needs to be inspected. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I have a video but I don't know if I can post it. Fluid looked like the color of motor oil I thought.

Looking at the fluid isn't going to tell us anything. You need to have the can inspected. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I agree, my dear is getting hammered on pricing on over selling me. The car recently had front end damage and the radiator was replaced. Not sure if that is irrelevant. Guy did a horrible job. Car ran fine even after the accident. I had him put the radiator in and small repairs and now it is where it's at.

Yep, I would wager he did a sloppy job on the radiator and that's what let go. The cooler lines go into the radiator. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
