The starter is on the wrong side in an SDL, its on the passenger side for the 617.


All MB auto trannys of that era were a 4 speed, if you don't have 4 gears than yours is simply malfunctioning, or you might think its revving too high.

How fast can your car go? what RPMS is it running at 55mph? 75mph? If its about 2400 at 55 and 3400ish at 75 then its going through all 4 gears just fine.
