85 300 SD Tranny issue help ! 208,000 miles on car
I posted here a weeks ago few about an issue that appeared to be a minor problem with accelerator linkage. Today I had the first opportunity to take a serious look and I am afraid it is a tranny problem.
Here goes: Over a 2 day time period the acceleration became more and more sluggish requiring pushing down on the pedal more. The second day it was so bad that I barely got it home at speeds well below speed limit ( thanks again to all those honking and giving me the semi-international middle finger of peace sign) Today started the car let it warm up and slowly moved the shifter through the gears. As normal you could feel it as it went into Drive. As I pressed the pedal the engine speed increased without really bogging down but the car only
rolled 1/4 inch and no further ( driveway is on an incline) did not try reverse since the car is sitting near the end of the driveway and do not want to block the sidewalk or have it stranded in the street. I know the fluid has not been changed in awhile but it gave no other symptoms. Is this a B2 piston issue ?
Help !
Alan
