The PO had replaced the transmission in June of '01 at 166,xxx miles at MB for a cost of $7,1xx.xx. The SDL now has 220,xxx miles. My Indy says this is the improved version of the original transmission

- probably need to drive another SDL to make an opinion on that. The shifting seems to be a little sharp (as compared to the 300D) unless you have your toe-nails in the firewall.
