You're driving an automatic, the car should select the correct gear for you. However some automatics allow the driver to select low gears for use in slow moving traffic for example. If you feel you need more power when driving uphill then select one of the lower gears.
shifts normal with normal driving conditions when driving hard transmission stalls.have to ease off gas to go to next gear
If it is an automatic transmission going uphill it will downshift to a lower gear for more torque.
my automatic transmission is stuck in neutral. how do you get it into gear
It is called the passing gear.
Automatic transmissions lose acceleration driving uphill because of the torque converter. The engine turns one side of the torque converter and the other side is splined into the input set of the planetary gears. The torque converter uses fluid to turn the input shaft in the transmission. When the transmission is locked into gear and going uphill the torque converter has to work against power losses from the tires on the road and when the engine is working harder the torque converter cuts or "shears" the fluid and it causes the transmission to overheat. Always make sure you have enough fluid in the transmission
this is of course dependant on whether it is a manual transmission or automatic....i recommend that if you dont know how to put it into gear, maybe you shouldnt be driving a mercedes....just a thought
In gear. Whichever one... doesn't really matter.

That would be the second gear of your automatic transmission.
There are several things that can cause your automatic transmission not to go into first gear. The most common cause is low transmission fluid.
The "low" setting in a car's transmission system limits the gear range to lower gears, providing more power and control at lower speeds, such as when driving uphill or towing heavy loads.
The advantage of a six speed manual transmission over a automatic transmission is you control the shifting. Now this can be a good or bad thing. It depends on how exprienced you are at driving and how well you know your car. Another advantage is that when you are driving or racing on a track you have another gear to go unlike other cars.
