If yours is CVT it is unlikely to be working properly , very very few people know how these work now and you have to know in able to repair them . Send me a PM if you have troubles .

I must admit this is my first 300, and therefore I am unfamiliar with the CVT system. Is this problematical, and what should I look for when driving the car? It’s having a new fuel pump fitted after which if it drives ok I will be taking it. Is the CVT a car I should avoid? How easy is it to maintain and repair? Many thanks!
