I sure am sorry that your evaporator went out so soon, but I honestly believe that evaporator failures are much more rare on the later W124's, so i'll just agree to disagree with you  .
On the five speed transmission - are you talking about a manual or an automatic?
In the U.S., the 5 speed automatic transmission wasn't released until 1997 in the W210 chassis, and that is the one with the problems in the early models.
