Well I got the 2nd replacement trans install finished up just a little
while ago on the 190D. Filled up the fluid, checked for leaks, none.
Goes RIGHT into reverse, no delay at all, goes right into drive as well.
OK, so I take off. SAME THING AS BEFORE, wont upshift. So I unhook
the control cable, same thing. Then, I started running it back and
forth down the driveway, after about the 3rd time, all the sudden it
started shifting. Whatever was stuck because upstuck. Im sure that last
tranny I put in was probably OK, but something was stuck inside.
Anyway, took it for a 2 or so mile drive, first time I have been able to
get that car over about 30. Drives GREAT, shifts GREAT. Suspension is
excellent since its been completely rebuilt.
Its got Michelin Rainforce something or other tires on it right now.
They look fairly new or at least have quite a bit of tread left. The
DOT date code says they are from 2000 though. I am debating on if I
should keep those on there, or swap the wheels/tires from my other 190D
that I just put the brand new General Altimax tires on.
I will be selling the Kleb/Dan/Kleb/John/Gene/Kleb 190D in the next week
or 2 probably, so if anybody is interested let me know.
