I had the same problem

This summer at times my would shift that way. Then again it would do ok. Mine is a W123 300 D Turbo. When doing some serious checking with Bajaman a couple of weeks ago, we found out that the small vacuum pickup off the mainline between the pump and the booster was not pulling any vacuum. Mine has two vacuum pickups close together and the first one was just plugged up. I had a spare line from an 83, put it on and problem solved.
