Default Bot an E320, 1997 with 67k mi need advice

Main problem is sluggish transmission shift from 2 to 3 and 3 to 4 when cold in the morning. I live in a cold place near New York city. Changed the liquid and its better but not perfect. My sister owned the car and it sat without being run for a month at a time in Florida. Otherwise the car is good.
Other problem is she lost the 2nd remote key. She gave me the valet and the backup skeleton key but only one remote. As I understand it, this is the infrared type. I asked the dealer for a price and he asked $250..... while in eBay they are selling compatible units used and new for about $25-50 each. Problem is: how do I program them to work in my car ?
Appreciate your advice in either or both subjects.....
Hope to be an active member........[8D]
