tranny slippage??
Here are the symptoms... if I'm coasting at around 15-20mph and I suddenly punch to full throttle. The car doesnt take off immediately; instead the rpms move up and then it suddenly catches and takes off. Reminds me of a high winding torque converter...rubberbandish.
any ideas?

auto slipping?
I own a 1999 SLK 230. Purchased used 9 months ago.
Still under warrentee.
I've also noticed that when I stop down for passing, the
RPMs rev up then the transmission kicks in?
I'm gonna stop by the dealer one day before warrentee
runs out.
I just had the Air Mass Sensor replaced. Check engine light
came on and engine stumbled when cold.
