Check the kick down switch under the accelerator.  The one that forces downshift when you press hard on the accelerator.  My son found ours stuck and put in a replacement from Ebay.

I had not driven my 84 300sd in about a month. Took it to get a safety inspection (we need them yearly). Coming back I got it above 45 and after I slowed down, the car will not upshift. Especially what I call third gear above 38 mph. Checked engine and found a broken vacuum hose going to the alda. Replaced that, and the trans problem is still there.

Any solutions?

Thanks
