190E 2.3 transmission issue
Hi all, I am usually in the 124 forum but my sister has a '91 190E 2.3 that has been sitting for a few months. Once the tranny started acting up she moved to a 210. My friend is now is thinking of buying it so we need to sort out the issue.
My sister parked it one day and it had driven and shifted fine. When she started to leave she had to lift off the accelerator to get it to shift out of first, she immediately drove to my slowly house, two miles away. When I drove the car it would not shift out of first at all. I dropped the pan and there were no metal shavings, the fluid looked and smelled fine.
Any thoughts? I'm thinking maybe a vacuum issue...
Thanks for any help you can give.
