Very nice bro! Very helpfull, the plastic in the end should be placed, so you can turn it clock and anticlockwise, the same degrees....as you probably know...but i saw you move it only in one direction...you place it in neutral position. What u did in the end is altering your settings by 20 or 30 degr, cause the little plastic cogwheels turn the whole core of your presettings.....it is made that way, to set minor adjustments in both directions, without taking off the cap...thanks for great insight! BobBelgium🇧🇪🚘
hi, sorry for delay in reply, we just got back last monday. this one had worn motor and low engine vacuum, so needed to go all the way in that direction to try get best trans shift feel. cheers
I had a rough shift on both of my 80's mercedes, diesel and 500. I simply backed off the adjustment screw on the modulator by 1 turn, and it completely fixed the issue. It's so smooth now, it's not even noticable. I was worried for a while about vacuum, mechanical issues, etc, but this wasn't it.
Hello! Thank you so much for an awesome video. I was wondering if you could help point me in the right direction. I have late shifting. So if I just feather the throttle back a little bit when it would shift in its normal rpm's it shifts relatively smoother. If I don't throttle back at that point it is quiet jerky when if finally shifts. I hope l'm making sense. I have the 722.351 in my 1989 300se. I noticed there was a court too much in the transmission. I removed it and now my next theory is that either that court damage the transmission or there is a vacuum situation. Does this make sense? Thanks again
The test drive you did without the cap on the modulator is making it leak as the cap works as a seal. And that will make hard shifts like without the vacum hose on it like you eksperinced. And then you compensated by adjusting the cable for shift point. You have to have the seal cap on. The cable don't adjust harshnes in shift but only shift point. 2 years old video but I thought I'd just comment that
This was very insightful! I'm diagnosing a shift flare on my 1991 300E 4matic with the 722.3. Every time it shifts under half throttle or more, the rpms first flare up and then it moves to next gear. The shifts themselves are very smooth. Apparently the one-time-use vacuum cap that goes on top of the T-pin can be adjusted ever so slightly also (as you do at 20:36), so I've rotated it to the other side. However, no change was detected. Thinking of removing the cap and adjusting it at the T-pin. Did your car have any such symptoms?
hi, make sure you check how much vacuum you are actually getting at the modulator. you may have a leaking or blocked hose or ports. also check modulator is holding vacuum. trial and error is usually the best adjustment on the old bangers. cheers
@@YepThatsIt Great news! I turned the T-Pin a full circle and a quarter, and after several bouts of researching, adjusted the bowden cable back and forth several times between drives. The shift flare is pretty much gone! HUGE improvement. I intermittently get a flare at a certain rpm (1900-2100 rpm) ish but most other times, no flair at any other throttle position. Although I'm thrilled with the result, I'm curious what exactly is causing it. Is it engine not developing enough vacuum, vacuum pump failing, or some line leaking?
Even though you don’t have to drain the pan, do you have to remove any transmission oil? Will oil pour out of the port after removing the modulator? Sorry for the bother.
They're a great car, the M110 is almost certainly the best straight 6cyl engine Mercedes ever made. It was used over almost 2 full decades in I think 6 different chassis (it might be 5). It's a beautifully balanced, easy to repair and understand engine. In addition to the modulator it could also be the transmission pressure cable (Boden?) or the vacuum hose from the manifold to the modulator being blocked.
Hey. My name is Andrew. I I have a question about 722.4 1994 MB E320 (w124) I recently cleaned the valve body and replaced the paper gasket. Assembled everything back, torqued all bolts accordingly, installed new filter and oil pan gasket. I used Fuchs 4134 transmission fluid almost 8qts but now transmission won’t shift at all, no gears at all. I have a little bit experience working on the newer Mercedes 2003 and younger transmissions, but I never worked on so old generation transmissions Before this precision, the transmission worked fine I would appreciate your advice
Dear friend, very good video! Very informativ. I wonder if you could help me or advice me something to my promblem ? i have a problem witj my w123 230ce. The automatic transmission dont shift upwards anymore. What could it be? I read some stuff online but nothing helped. Thank you very much
hi, check all basics first, then make sure vacuum is getting to vacuum modulator at transmission and also that the transmission vacumm modulator isnt leaking ( diaphragm torn ). cheers
I've been trying find this information for a while now for my 81 300sd and 91 300te, the wagon was smoking like crazy, disconnected vacuum line and it stopped, big relief. It contaminated the engine oil with trans fluid also. Any idea of the pressures for the diesel and wagon? That car looks beautiful had a 75 280 s years ago, sorry i let her go. They ride very solid.
Hi, very good video! I have a E 230 T W124 1991 Auto transmission dont shift "up" when I start driving in 3rd and shift to D nothing happening, could replacing the Vacuum box solve my problem? Hope you are around to answer.
hello your video was very helpful i also was wondering where you are located as i am in melbourne and if i can not fix my auto i would like to come and see you with my sec500 as it wont change into top gear i would love to knowif that is a problem with the vacume modulator thank you
Hello and thanks for the great video. I have a question about my 1991 350SD, I recently lost reverse gear and thought it was the transmission but I couldn't find one and is too expensive to have one rebuild so I decided to change the Vacuum Modulator and to my surprise I got my reverse back, but it doesn't go on reverse until I rev the engine to 2k rpm or depress the pedal about half way, other wise it feels as if it's on neutral, the car moves forward if it's downhill until it engages and then tends to go fast/burns rubber. With my old modulator all the other gears were very smooth, just no reverse, now I sort of have reverse but my other gears are very harsh/jumpy. I tried adjusting the modulator but I can't get it to work correctly. Do you or anybody have any ideas how to adjust the modulator correctly or could it be the Vacuum Control Pump? Any advice would be much appreciated . Thanks
hi, if you have improvement doing that, i`d be checking the vacuum lines arent leaking and/or blocked at an orifice somewhere. depending how worn your motor is, you will just need to adjust by trial and error until you are happy with the shift quality. if you have more questions contact me on our facebook link. cheers
This unit modulates the shift and can IMPROVE shift quality. Sounds like you possibly have a slipping reverse gear which is caused by worn clutch bands within the transmission. This problem with only be fixed by remanufacturing the unit to replace clutches. I hope you get it sorted out! Best to find LOW mile USED transmission and do a swap.
@@skatewild123 You were right, my issue was the reverse clutches, I did a partial rebuilt and my reverse is working great now but because I played with the vacuum lines my shifting is harsh and a bit delayed . I notice a disconnected vacuum line coming out of the Vacuum Control Valve, I don't know where it connects to. It has a 90 degree elbow, is black and goes in to the firewall . Any ideas where I can find a vacuum diagram for this model? Thanks
I have this valve in my car, it is red, and it has a spare part number of WM 126, and my car has a 124. Does it actually work, and is your green color the developed one?

1994 w140 s420 1-2 shift has to be high rpm to shift to 2nd while shifting manual. If you let it shift in auto drive Position again takes high rpms but will go to 3rd. Could you know what thus may be? Car sat for over a year.
Very helpful sir thank u very much,i have w202 c180 it was manual gear than swap to automatic gear,so i face a problem in hard shift between first and second shift,they replaced the vaccum modulator and adjust it but shift becomes less harder but jerking in differential😟plz advise
hi, trial and error will allow you to adjust. make sure you make reference points so you know how to readjust as needed. if your motor isnt supplying enough vacuum, then becomes a bit more difficult to adjust properly. make sure you check all your vacuum hoses and connections. cheers
Thanks for the video! I have a 722.118 that has been sitting for years. It has no leaks and the pressure is according to the manuals. The problem is that at times the pressure drops to zero and the exchange doesn't work. I changed the oil and filter, but the problem persists. It only works again when I accelerate above 3000rpm. Any suggestion?
hi, check all the basics and because has been sitting for years, sometimes the internal transmission components will get surface rust on them ( depending on where it was parked ) check all basics and let it idle or drive for a while before you drop the pan. good idea to place some magnets on the bottom of the pan to help catch any magnetic debris before you drop the pan as well.cheers
Thats a damn Clean W126 for a car with 650,000 on the clock. Ive been looking to find a pic of the vacuum connections on the acelrator vacuum control box for the M110 engine . I cant even find the control unit in the EPC.
Great video. Thanks! Q: My transmission is 722.318. Do you by any chance have the modulator oil pressure value it should be set to? (It has Green Modulator)
@@YepThatsIt Thanks for writing back. Incidentally, I have found a great document describing the 722.3-4 tune-up process in detail (www.scribd.com/document/189774989/722-4-Vacuum-Procedure), including the pressure value for 722.318 (3 bar). I don't see your FaceBook link anywhere here...
@@YepThatsIt Thanks. You wouldn't have any contacts for a rebuilt one ? Trans is actually shifting quite well, just not perfect, full service and filter, trans cooler, vacuum modulator and vacuum hose completed. From further reading have decided a new valve body is in order.
hi, if not going into 4th gear can be caused by any number of things. start by checking all the basics first. can be stuck valve, worn transmission, fluid level etc. i would need alot more info and beers. cheers
hi, we always try keep same colour modulator. id assume the spring tension inside modulator is different the whole modulator sizes look to be same/similar. try and let me know how it feels. cheers

hi, fix all the issues you described and check all the basics including the driveline and rubber mounts. make sure the modulator is not leaking and receiving a good vacuum. make sure you mark and take reference points before you adjust anything, so you can return back to where it was originally. there is an adjustment on the modulator as shown in the video. hope that helps ad thank goodness for google translate. cheers

salut, assurez-vous que tout est propre autour du modulateur de vide avant de le retirer. trouver le même modulateur de couleur. également une bonne idée d'ajuster grossièrement le modulateur à votre original comme point de référence, vous pourrez ensuite l'ajuster à votre guise. à votre santé

hi, they have a switch on tbar console - s & w from memory.... summer and winter, in winter when you manually select low it will take off in 2nd so wheels slip less in snow. you can also wind in adjuster on modulator so holds gears longer and moves up the shift points. cheers

Aracımda LPG mevcut , LPG de iken daha fazla . Hava akış metrem bozuk rölantim sabit değil fakat benzine geçtiğimde çok daha iyi geçişler alıyorum . Hissedilir derecede azalıyor benzinde . Ama şanzımandaki vuruntu hep var . Öncelikle nereden başlamalıyım ? Şanzıman takozunu değiştirdim ,şaft takozu olabilir mi ? Bunlardan değilse modülatöre müdahale edesim var , lütfen bana tam olarak ne yapmam gerektiğini söyler misiniz ? Kontrol edeceğim değiştirmem gereken neler var ? Yağ ve filtre yeni orjinal. Modülatöre nasıl bir ayar yapabilirim ?
hi, fix all the issues you described and check all the basics including the driveline and rubber mounts. make sure the modulator is not leaking and receiving a good vacuum. make sure you mark and take reference points before you adjust anything, so you can return back to where it was originally. there is an adjustment on the modulator as shown in the video. hope that helps ad thank goodness for google translate. cheers

Does anybody know if this modulator (A 126 270 92 79) is good for 722.3 in my 560sl also?
hi, stick with same body colour modulator. cheers
@@YepThatsIt Thank you for advice. Red ones are no longer avaliable, that is the problem.
من فضلك ممكن اعرف سبب فصل البودي فلف

J'ai une Mercedes w124 De 1994 E250 diesel je veux changer la capsule de dépression de la boîte
salut, assurez-vous que tout est propre autour du modulateur de vide avant de le retirer. trouver le même modulateur de couleur. également une bonne idée d'ajuster grossièrement le modulateur à votre original comme point de référence, vous pourrez ensuite l'ajuster à votre guise. à votre santé
I want to buy this modulator.. can you help?
hi, contact me on facebook link. if you`re in oz I can organise what you need. cheers
Any shifting symptoms?
hi, yes shifting issues and also losing fluid with no visible oil leaks. cheers
I have benz w124 1995 e320
What color type of this modulator valve well used in my car?
And am I can replacement it easily!?
hi, just go with same colour that is in yours. cheers
Hi YeoThatsIT,,. I have a Old W126 (380SE) . ( Most definitely NOT a Car for everyday life ..
What would YOU do to help with this ...
I NEED the car / Gearbox. To HOLD / STAY in 1st Gear ( gear 1 ) & NOT change Gear , Into 2nd Gear. ( Gear 2 )
The car is being used as a stunt car in Australia.. and I need first gear at high revs
hi, they have a switch on tbar console - s & w from memory.... summer and winter, in winter when you manually select low it will take off in 2nd so wheels slip less in snow. you can also wind in adjuster on modulator so holds gears longer and moves up the shift points. cheers
hi because you didn't use a pressure gauge ... like the manual says.
hi, thanks for your input. cheers
Green modulator 240D
no worries. cheers
just as reference, how much does this whole service cost?
hi, time, parts, trans fluid and gst for the tax man. cheers
@@YepThatsIt just trying to compare the service prices here in Sweden and US. lets say w124 1995 E200 with 10k on it
If you drive it without the t piece in it will have a vacuum leak and won't work properly. Don't ask me how I know.
haha i know how you know as i often learn the same way. cheers
@@YepThatsIt So true, very helpful vid btw.
Can't get my eyes off the temp gauge... I busted a few of my engines maxing that out. Sigh...
not good, no worries, cheers
