No flairs all day, except just a very little bit when I first started the car and it was cold this morning. You know how Mercedes has that absolutely ridiculous thing of the delayed shift when cold, which I absolutely hate, well that may have messed me up a little this morning when it was cold. For the rest of the day, however, NO FLAIR!!! I did turn it in just a bit more too, so maybe tomorrow morning will be better. I will have to wait and see.
All in all, it is a fantastic improvement so far!!
I am thrilled!!
Next, I am definitely going to find a way to adjust the modulator to get an even firmer shift. That may help prolong the life of my trans. It just can’t be good to slide into gear, even though it is sooo much better already.
I am just so grateful to Steve for helping me and I still can’t believe that the Mercedes dealer was ignorant about such a little adjustment that can do so much good.
Anyway, thanks again Steve!!!

I think it might be like always going back to that same bad relationship with an ex girlfriend.
You feel you love them too much, or you are just too stupid to know any better.
