Yeah its stock on the car, its a W210 E300 turbodiesel wagon, its got the OM606.962 engine, I will look into upgrading the valve body as I am looking to drop the gearbox pan to change the filter and fluids. I am not having issues at the moment with power, but I know I will at some point so increasing the clutch pack pressure would stop the transmissions flaring between shifts.

But if you are making significantly more power than stock then adding some pressure would help with handling it. It would be better to drop the transmission and build it to handle the power and leave the pressures alone. That way you still get the daily driver quality with the ability to hold the power you are making as well. If you are going to increase shift pressure at all just use the blue top solenoids.

Thanks for that, I will look to fit the blue top solinoids at some point, the car is stock at the moment, however would be running hopefully over 300-400bhp at some point. Its not flaring at the stock levels but I just need to work out the best upgrade route.
