C280 rough transmission shifting

Hi,

It might not be anything bad but I was just curious. My '95 C280 (with 75K miles) doesn't want to (or should I say "hesitates") shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear in the morning. There are no clunk noises or any other strange noises coming from the tranny but sometimes I do notice that it shifts rather roughly from gear to gear. I was the one who had the broken tranmission cooling hose and I lost some fluid. So I know I have some new fluid and it looks nice and pink and is within the correct range on the dipstick.
I tried to do a search on "1986 420SEL shifting roughly" from other theads but couldnt find that post.

Thanks,

Andrew

It's normal. Do a search on shift delay cold.
