Right, N/A.

Just took it out for a drive.

Door locks "pop" after about 4 minutes.

Climate control (early version, my favorite!) comes on after about 5 min. Car started with system set to auto low.

terrible flare 2-3. Gets better as car warms, but still shifts a bit soft even at operating temp, I think now.

My 80 116 SD always started in 2nd. Mercedesshop wasn't around yet so I never knew that it was supposed to start in first.
