For noise, pls visit a competent technician to diagnose and fix it. For oil leaks, have same mechanic carefully look around the top and sides, then replace the valve cover gasket with a brand new piece and have it glued with an RTV silicon gum.

1, Was your car converted from 22pin to 10pin, Yes or no?

2, Was he the person who converted it, yes or no?

3, Does the car shifts thru all its gears, yes or no?

4, Have you seek another technicians opinion based on this discovery, Yes or no?

From your comment, your problem was oil leaks from your transmission, your mechanic ought to fix it, if he can't, have someone else do it.

Just got a GL 450 Benz 2010 model
but the key remote isn't functioning and the alternate key is lost making it impossible to lock the car as I may not be able to open it . Someone told me it may be the key battery that's faulty.
Please where can I get the battery replaced or even buy another key. Thanks

Replace keyless fob battery if it works, fine. If it doesn't work, you need it replaced & reprogrammed.
I can't give location of where you can buy new replacement piece because I don’t know where you are.
