I sorted through all the threads and have determined that given the miles on the trans (about 275K), and wanting to get at least another 4 (mostly) trouble free years out of the car, I'm going to go with a fresh rebuilt unit. Sun Valley's generally very good reputation, price and warranty made my decision for me. Also spent some time on the phone with their salesman Marc who is a really knowledgeable MBZ guy...and a nice guy to boot. I'm also going to throw a new radiator and vacuum pump at the car for reliability sake as well. The car has been a great and nearly trouble free ride for me for the last six+ years, so I figure she's due for some attention!
I'll provide an update once the new trans in in and I've put some miles on it.
