C230K tranny issue....maybe?...

Here's the issue, when I put the car into Drive it seems to want to lurch forward more than it should. If I let off the brakes the car will cruise pretty good without even touching the gas. Every other automatic I've ever driven if you let off the brake it will go but you need to press the gas pedal to get it to really go anywhere, anybody have a fix for this?

What does your engine rev at when you put it in drive with your foot on the brake?

I have to agree with JC... Honestly i put it into D and it wants to just go!

This car wants to consume fuel at all times lol.

No lurching on my C230K which is also an 05 model so I dunno where you guys get that this is "normal". My car also has a broken transmission mount and even then still doesn't lurch.
