Hi, all-
My wife's 1980 300CD is in the shop. I brought it in to have the glow
plugs replaced because they were demonstratably bad (murder to get
started when cold, white smoke on start-up, glow plug light on dash
blinking.)
Then, the dealership called back and said they found a bad injector
which needed replacing. OK.
They just called back and asked me "how much deeper they should go"
because it is burning oil and the trans isn't shifting right.
OK, by how much deeper, they mean, "into my pockets," I get that, but
the trans thing I am curious about-
The trans shifts just fine when the beast is warmed up. It shifts
whiplash-stiff when the car is cold. How concerned should I be about this?
