My 240D had a bad trans problem over the past 4 or 5 days, but thanks to many good ideas for some of you guys. I have fixed the problem. Just when I was ready to take it to the shop, I decided to give the vac system one more shot. after getting my fluid level just right, I started tinkering with the vac lines, I found that if I moved the line that goes to the transmission closer to the vac pump it worked a lot better, even better than before the problem started. I need to replace my pump or maybe find any leaks that it might have, but for now I'm happy with it. At least I know for sure whats wronge with it.
