Shifter Assembly

[bosssman]

Hi all...
I just had a new shifter assembly installed in my 97 C230.....However when I'm stopping it seems is as thought the car is stuck in gear and then I get a jerk like it finally downshifted....any suggestions..

Was the computer reset and retrained? Aswell if the fluid wasnt changed do that too...trust me...lifetime my ass.

exactly! the oil looses its thickness after all the heat and use its been through, also when you open up the Tranny oil pan you will see a shit load of tiny metal particles around the magnet (if 202 have magnets) .... then just imagine - all that shit goes through the gears over and over, now do you think that can decrease the life of it ? YESSS!

you probably have a sticking solenoid in the valve body of your transmission.

what are referring to as lifetime.....the computer was cleaned and all new fluids...
