Great info first time hearing of shifting to low and then drive in order to start in first gear ; I suggest you make a video with all the tips on using the auto transmission ie max speed the transmission will kick down to lower gear and how to do it for example I’m sure there’s more

I have the same issue in a 190d, the transmission jerks when shifting. It should be quite the same?

Vacuum line is cheap. Frustration, time, and parts you don't need, are expensive!
I have been a Mechanic for over 30 years now. Also, not many folks know to use the engine oil dipstick for some lube when at the side of the road!

I have a 97 Mercedes Benz e300d 164k and the rpm stay up there when I’m doing about 45. Is that normal?
