| VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | |||
| 09/02/2011 | 80950 | ||
| As i was merging on to the highway from another highway at about 40mph, i had to speed up because of the traffic that was coming towards me and also to blend in with the rest of the cars speeds. i went to accelerate, but nothing happened. let off the gas, and then punched the pedal all the way, but still no sign of acceleration. i kept my foot on the gas and about 3 seconds later, the car began slowly to speed up...one mph at a time. it took some time to make it so 65mph. after reaching that speed, i tried some troubleshooting. i let off gas pedal completely and stepped back on it. that didnt help. i also tried using my shifttronic, and that didnt help. i took the next off ramp and came to a complete stop at a traffic light. i went into park and right back into d. i still had the accelerating problem. the only way it went away was to shut off the car and turn it back on. it currently works well without any signs of a problem. i did not receive a message on the dashboard nor did i receive an error code. | |||

| I own a mb 2003 e500. when applying the accelerator pedal the car would jerk back and forth like the car is stalling for no long than couple secs or less. i've only noticed this happens at low rolling speeds. this has happened randomly numerous times and i have yet to find a pattern. i brought this to the dealership and they can't reproduce the problem. *tr | |||
