Well that sure makes me wonder what to do with my tranny trouble!
My '83 300TD "slips" going from 3rd to 4th if left in D. If I select S and wait for it to "wind" just a little bit in 3rd, then move the selector to D as I let off the accelerator, I can feel a nice solid shift to 4th and life is good.
1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd shift fine, if just a little sharp. But I have to baby it into 4th. The problem seems to be shifting from 3rd to 4th under load.
I just recently bought the car and it had that condition when I bought it. The milage is 167k and from looking at maintenance records that seems to be correct, or at least real close. I bought it with "major work" in mind, but I know there are some vacuum issues and such, and Trans-X!!!, that may take care of it.
Just wanting to get all the info I can.
