Re: [diesel_mercedes] ATF in the vacuum lines

 

Nate,

Here's a video from Mercedes Source showing the older and newer modulators: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gM4KZvwsCW0

Pic of modulator:

I had to remove the rear tranny mount, and lower the tranny to get access, 2 bolts, pull out, slide new one in, re-bolt and test. I had decent shifts before the last modulator failed, so I didn't do the whole vacuum shift test.

I think my shift is too soft right now, so I'll turn the knob on the modulator this weekend.

Here's some info from the Sun Valley Mercedes Transmissions:

Thanx Rob! .

Any chance of a picture of this up graded modulator ? .

Does anyone have detailed info on checking the slushbox internal pressure ? .

1982 240D with first gear start, it takes 30 seconds plus to take up from park and shifts late ~ before I touch anything else I'd like to rig uo a hose and pressure gauge and check / adjust it at speed like Mercedes says to do.....

I have no idea where to tap in for the pressure and the specs to look for, any links would be greatly appreciated .

TIA,

-Nate
