[diesel_mercedes] Curing Tranny ' Flaring '

 


Thanx Francis ! .

I did this on my '82 240D and it helped but , it also made it shift later so my fuel economy dropped appreciably .

I also adjusted the TV cable on the rocker box , that  really helped make it shift at more appropriate RPM's and loads .

I had a similar issue.  Adjust the little "T" pin 1 turn counter clockwise on the vacuum control module on the trans. That will make it shift harder. 

If you are bound and determined to adjust something, you can mess with:
*** the bowden cable on the fuel linkage. Tightening the cable will make for a later/higher-RPM shift.
***the Vacuum Control Valve (VCV) on the side of the fuel linkage
***the modulator "tee" on the left side of the transmission. Out adjustment makes for stiffer shifts.
