Check that the modulator valve is getting vacuum and is correctly adjusted. The other question is, unfortunately "Who rebuilt the transmission?" I had massive problems with a W126 transmission and the ultimate cause was that the case had distorted and there were internal leaks between it and the valve body. Had to get a case from a wreck. Also look at the B1 and B2 piston.
