I always had an issue with my auto trans on my sc300, because it takes forever to shift from 1st to 2nd gear even, if I step on the throttle all the way. It shifts ok on all the gears but 1st gear. It feels really slugish on 1st. I actually have to put it on ¨L¨ if I want to speed up the process.

I was told it can be a sensor that is inside of the trans. It has been doing it for months..

Has anyone had any similar issues ? or have any idea what can that be ?

ok sorry to say but ur tranny is slipping due to the 1st gear clutch pack worn out. to shift try letting off the throttle all the way and putting it in agina

And dont turbo your car til you get it fixed... itll just get worse. You can find a good used one on the forums (SF or maybe here) for REAL cheap.

I actually have a r154 swap I just need to extend the shifter and buy a speed sensor. I was just trying to keep the auto untill I gather up evrything and installed. It looks like I have to do the 5 speed swap sooner that I thought.

Have you messed with the line pressure on the throttle body recently?

I'd check your fluid level as well.

I tried to tighten the linkage to see if I was to resolve the issue. I also added more oil.. but the isssue continues..

the trans shifts great but 1st gear. what I will do next is replace the filter and, see if it helps out a bit.
