Transmission Help please any and all!
1995 sl500, 56k miles,
When the car shifts into first and second gears it shifts hard, not always but most of the time. Also when I put it into reverse and drive I wait about 10 seconds before it engages? Any and all help appreciated. I am going to have a trans fluid and filter done, the dealer here wants $575 just for that so I will look further, just crazy!
