w124 2nd gear question
Hi All,
When driving in traffic sometimes I place the car in 2nd gear. After a few yards it jerks like it kicked down to 1st. It seems to stay in 1st and never gets up to 2nd. Do I have a problem or it just appears to be 1st. I'm asking since normally the car starts in 2nd when in D and it feels torquier once it's been in 2nd for a while. thanks,

w201 2nd gear question
My 190E does the same thing...I was just about to ask this same question...I thought it was skipping a gear or something as I can only count 3 upshifts. I wondered if it started in 2nd. I've only felt 1st a couple times like the above person posted.

However, what's NOT normal is it not upshifting out of 1st.

If it is an I6 in 2 from a start, you will pretty much stay in first gear until almost redlien
