I have a 1988 190E 2.3 with auto trans. The shift from 1st to 2nd seems to be unusually harsh. In fact, if it were a manual trans, I would think that the driver was letting the clutch out too slowly - a little over-rev then bump into gear. Does this sound like a bad news deal, or is it something easy like an adjustment or a
vacum modulator or ? The other shift points all seem fine. Any input would be apreciated.
