124 270 06 01 722 320 02 810116 is the number posted on the side of the transmission casing. I did some testing and found that i have no governor pressure intermittantly. What i mean is when the upshift doesn't happen the pressure gauge doesn't move but when the pressure gauge moves (which was rare on a 10 min or so test drive, the pressure was within parameters (greater than .5 bar at 30 kph) I think i should add that i have been trying to remove the governor on my 1986 300e and not having much luck. I pulled off the cover and have the removed the support so the tranny is lower. the problem is i can't release the governor retainer because i can't find it. What i understand is that it should either be a lock nut on the passenger side of the tranny, which isn't there, or it should be a clip in the drivers side, which i can't see if it is there or not. do i need to pull the pan down? i also found a great link which has a sort of transmission manual posted in pdf for the 722.3 /4/5 http://transmission.articles.mbz.org/akp722.pdf
thanks in advance for any help
