Also, consider switching to synthetic ATF next time you change it.
I spent some $$ at AutoZone (it's $4.99 a quart and my 84 SD takes 6.3 quarts) but both my cars shift better with Mobil 1 synthetic ATF than with dino ATF.
Much less shift-related sluggishness during the first few miles, in the SD especially.
The SD is a car where my mechanic is really pushing me to get a new tranny...
With the TE shifting is pretty darn good for a Mercedes transmission, and I've never driven a Mercedes that has a GM-smooth transmission. I'm dating myself with the TurboHydramatic 400's...
