W202 C280 Shifting Problem
Discussion
Posting this on behalf of a friend:
'96 C280 with the 5 speed auto (with manual shift select options below).
The car shifts poorly in and out of third. When being driven normally the car changes from 1st to second without incident, then on the change from second to third the revs rise (either a little or a lot, depending on the throttle position) and after about a second there is an accompanying 'bang' thump in the back and the car selects third. Something less severe happens on the change from 3rd to 4th. The car has recently had a transmission service which did nothing to alleviate the problem.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

a valve body could cure it though
