i have an '87 300e. I lose a quart of oil about every 750 miles. I was told it is normal and to just keep adding more. The engine runs hot so I think it might be burning it. Does anybody know anything about this or have similar problems? Also, my transmission shifts late from 2nd to 3rd and bucks going into 4th (I'm aware that my car begins in second gear). I know that there is a way to adjust the tranny, but I could not piece together exactly how to do it from doing a search on it. I would appreciate input from anybody with knowledge of this. Thanks.
