OK - about this plate......
I have a minor "semi hard shifting" issue with my tranny (80k miles).
I replaced the fluid with MB spec 236.10, but still notice the shifting issue. It's not totally anoying - but its also not typical mercedes smoothness.

I watched the vid - amaxing how easy and casual some people make it look. I guess on the bench versus updside down under the car is much easier.
Though it does have a different filter and pan than on my SLK32.

For the sake of $200 - you reckon its worth repalcing?
