Default Autobox

Could someone enlighten me as to how the Autobox on say a pre 91 mercedes would change gear? I mean as to how it would decide to change.

Reason i ask is cos my 1990 500 SE is very smooth, but sometimes can slightly clunk into gear with a shud. Which is annoying. So im wondering if theres a way to smoothen the way the gear changes gear on a 1990 500.

Thanks!

Hey Mercv8!

I can't give you an answer, but I will tell you you're probably better off posing your question in the S Class https://mercedesforum.com/forumid_9/tt.htm or General Tech https://mercedesforum.com/forumid_2/tt.htm forums. You may get a more "been-there-done-that" answer quicker. IMO

Good Luck!

try a gearbox oil and filter change, the problem could be your oil or even lack of it !
