My transmission would slip in reverse, and not even move the car if there was an up hill grade. This was a 1991 300SE. Don't know if this is the same transmission. 120,000 miles. Great transmission shop (Vancouver Transmission) had to rebuild the whole thing- $2,000. There was a hole in some little rubber seal that was causing the reverse slippage, but at that mileage the whole thing needed refreshing.
