Minor transmission issue
When I put the transmission into Drive, the car ('94 C280) drives but sometimes it doesn't shift to the 2nd gear until I put it into Neutral and again back into D -the RPM goes past 3k and it's still in the first gear (it usually shifts by 2500 RPM). This is a very recent issue and I can't think of anything that could've caused it. Eventho it's happened probably twice so far I'm beginning to worry...
Any advice on why I'm experiencing this is appreciated.

sounds like. . .
could be several things. first, when was the last time you changed the transmission oil? second, does that model have a single/double switch? if so, with the car off, flip it back and forth a few times to clean the contacts. last, and most likely, you've got a problem with the transmission control system-go to the directly to the dealer, do not pass GO.
there are some other possibilities, but try those first. hope this helps.
