only in this country for a year or two in the mid 80's. You can convert without much fuss(I have done it before on another mercedes and plan to do it on my TE)

Your tranny is most likely just needing some adjusting and is not in trouble. Don't worry.

The MB Technical Data Passenger Cars manual (October 1993 edition) gives all models available with the 717 5-speed manual transmission, apart from the 300 turbodiesels and the 420 and 500 V8 models.
