I just had a few questions about my AT, it is a 3 speed right? And on the highway it seems to be at a high rpm going 70mph ,is this how it should be? also when I let off the gas, the trans slows the car down but all of the other AT that I have owned disengaged when letting off the gas.
Thanks, Aaron

Yup, it's a three speed and yeah it gets loud at speed. when you let off the gas, you'll slow down, but mostly due to wind resistance. Also, benz transmissions back then are older technology than the matching US boxes.
