Faulty manual overdrive unit. Difficult to replace? 200 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be Dave on  Thu Sep 15 14:06 CST 2005 [RELATED]

My 85 240 5 speed is not consistently shifting into OD when I engage the button
on the gear shift. I assume it's a solenoid or such as it seems I had a mechanic replace it 10 years ago. Do you think that is the problem or could it be something else? How difficult is it to replace (I replaced an OD unit on my 92 240 automatic)? The mechanic wants to charge $300 and if I can do it reasonbly easy I will. Thanks
