I did look it over thinking all the goodies would be there to convert ours or another, possibly throwing a 5spd into the mix. This particular car is really clapped out and ~ 600 miles away. I'm going to finish present projects, then look for something fun like that. In this way I would not stress-out my excellent Wife. She will,however want me to get into a fun project that she can also enjoy. She has recently suggested we overhaul my old Harley FLH together and do a little touring in the future. I am a lucky man to have her in my life. In my wildest dreams I never thought it could be this good. Johnny B. I Mac Therefore I am

The B-2 piston shattering was unique to the 722.3 transmissions, but the 722.4 B-2 pistons or bands CAN fail and the resulting symptom is exactly the same. They don't fail nearly as often because the parts were redesigned (just as the revised, replacement 722.3 parts were).

This one has 296k on the clock. Probably just worn out. Maybe Johnny B wants another 190D after his wife claims the 2.0? The 722 series transmissions wear every time they shift and hardly wear at all while in gear running. So to minimize transmission wear, minimize shifting. During the 10 years I was driving from Pittsburgh to Washington DC and back weekly, I counted the number of shifts that my 300TD made on the trip and the number of shifts that my 190Ds (with automatics) made. The 190D shifted not quite twice as often. Around town the number of shifts was much closer to the same. That corresponds with the average life of the a 722.4 transmission in a 201 vs a 722.3 transmission in a 123/124/126. In city driving, both transmissions give similar life (150-200kmi), but in highway service, the average 722.3 transmission will last quite a bit longer (all other things being equal). I believe that the BIGGEST factor is engine power. The more powerful engines allow the transmission to last longer by allowing the engine to propel the car satisfactorily with many fewer shifts!
