{"nhtsa_id":11037616,"type":"service_bulletin","type_name":"Service bulletin","date_added":"2026-09-30","date":"2026-09-04","document_id":"LI27.00-P-073124","mfr_campaign":null,"replaces":null,"component":"POWER TRAIN","mfr_system":null,"summary":"Complaint Customer complaints relating to automatic transmission 725.0 (NAG3 Classic / 9G‑TRONIC automatic transmission) and 725.1 (NAG3 facelift/9G‑TRONIC automatic transmission facelift) For faster, more effective and more targeted diagnosis, Intelligent Predictive Repair (IPR) has been developed and integrated into XENTRY Diagnosis. This ensures an automated diagnosis process. Cause As part of the on‑going quality monitoring process and associated quality and damaged part appraisals, a high number of ineffective repairs have been discovered. Such ineffective repairs have a negative impact on all those involved. For the customer, it means high costs and long repair times and for the dealer, it may result in the warranty claim being rejected. Remedy General note: IPR is available for: NAG3 Classic (automatic transmission 725.0) NAG3 ‑ AMG sports models (AMG 43 and AMG 53 with converter) NAG3 ‑ AMG 63 NAG3 ‑ Hybrid NAG3 Facelift (automatic transmission 725.1) NAG3 facelift (725.1) with engine 139/177 (AMG 43/63) Steps for the Service Advisor: Important: The more information and detail that can be given to the workshop about the complaint, then the more effective the subsequent diagnosis with IPR can be. To this end, a detailed service reception questionnaire has been provided to help the Service Advisor ask the right questions about the complaint. ·Ask precise details about the customer complaint and the conditions and context. ·Fill out the service reception questionnaire (please see WIS document: OF27. 00‑P‑3000‑05A) for customer complaints in detail and forward it to the workshop. Operation steps for the workshop employee: Perform quick test ·Access the transmission control unit via XENTRY Diagnosis ·Select \"A customer complaint has been received\" and carry out all subsequent operation steps (IPR diagnosis path). ·The IPR repair instructions are displayed. Carry out the IPR repair instructions without performing any further diagnostic or repair steps. ·Important: The IPR repair instructions are binding and must be carried out. Differing repairs are possible; such repairs must be documented in XENTRY in free text. Please observe the information regarding the IPR diagnosis process in XENTRY. ·Conventional diagnosis and subsequent appropriate repairs are only permitted if IPR does not specify any repair instructions. ·Invoicing for the guided IPR steps: Operation item 27‑0640 and 0.1 hours !!!!! Notice regarding warranty: !!!!! ·The use of IPR in association with warranty claims is mandatory! ·If the IPR repair instructions are disregarded without justification, the warranty claims may be rejected and/or are subject to debit. IPR will provide a measure to repair the vehicle based on various data sources (EEPROM, fault codes, etc). Please consider the vehicle maintenance record of the vehicle. For warranty and goodwill repairs, the transmission ECU test log and/or IPR test result must be uploaded into Paperless XENTRY Diagnosis (pXD) . If repair is being determined based of oil pan condition pictures of oil pan MUST be provided to warranty as justification. ·Tamper‑proof documentation: The IPR repair instructions are stored in the control unit log. Please file this document in a tamperproof manner ‑ either in digital form or as a hard‑copy printout and also enclose a printout with the damaged part. In this regard, please comply with the country‑specific warranty requirements of the MPC/general distributor.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2026/MC-11037616-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2026/MC-11037616-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/11037616","components":[{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission
