2005 C230K-Where is the throttle actuator?
Having idle problems in my 05 c230K. In park it's fine, put it in gear and RPM's drop to 550-650, and when I come to a stop, Rpms dip to around 500 for about 2 seconds, sounds like it's going to stall out, then it recovers. Problem seems to go away after driving for a while. No CEL's but have read that the "throttle actuator" can be a culprit. Is the TA the same as the TB?

Is it doing this all the time or just now and then? My car has done exactly what you describe on seldom occasions from the time I got it in 2008 at 25k miles to this day at 114.5k. It has never actually stalled, but does seem like a complete POS for that moment when it happens.
