I would even throw in a filter with some new unused Costco synthetic oil

    sitting there and found a Logic7 setting. It has a Harmon Kardon
    system. WOW does it sound good. My 05E320 wagon does not have this
    and it sounds pretty good but this car is wayyyyy better.

    get the fluids circulating. Going out the driveway I noticed it
    was shifting ok. Hmmmm. I did some manual shifting 1-7 and it was
    shifting ok still. Hmmmm. Got out on the road, stomped it, it
    kicked down into first and ran like a scalded rat shifting fine up
    to 80 or so which was maybe 4th gear. Backed off and it shifted ok
    again. Did a little more enthusiastic motoring and it was shifting
    fine. Hmmmmm.

    the PO. Or some other fault that is causing that to happen. The
    CEL is on, when I checked it before there were a coupla faults in
    the airmatic and something else I don’t recall, nothing serious.
    I’ll check it again tomorrow in the daylight.

    nice (but needs a good interior detailing) car $900. Oh, and this
    thing is WOWWOWOW! when you mash the go pedal. I’m liking it.  I’m
    not sure I want to drive it any distance if it decides to kakk
    again, don’t have plates on it either.
