Mercedes benz 1991 300ce(RIP), now an 89 300ce
slow transmission
i listed this under another thread at an earlier time but decided to give it it's own.
my 300ce takes its time in between shifting into drive or reverse and is a little slow just shifting between gears in drive. does anyone else have this problem?

you can't just add sea foam snake oil, fuel injector cleaner/techron and expect your car to properly and correctly fixed.
you have to do the maint when it is scheduled-not 2 years ago.
if you won't listen to what people and your maintenance book tell you and take care of your merc, people will stop wasting their time helping you.
i'm not trying to be an "adam henry", BUT a mercedes is NOT a cheap car to own, it must be serviced.
why do you think some mb's go several hundred thousand miles???
someone pays the price!
if you can't properly service one you shouldn't have one.
a lot of your problems you bring up are because you car just needs to be serviced by a "REAL" mb technician at the stealer or good independent shop.
your car requires premium gas too.

i hope not. reverse seems to be working fine. the only reason im really curious to see if anyone else has teh problem of the car taking its time shifting into drive or reverse is because i have had a few snow storms recently. i found it nearly impossible to rock the car out of the snow, because by the time id the car would shift into reverse i would have already lost my momentum...same thing with drive. i read this on consumer guides, and was curious to see fi anyone else was experiencing the problem. thanks again
Automatic transmission: The transmission may delay shifting into Drive or Reverse, and may be corrected by installing reformulated Mercedes-Benz transmission fluid.
