HI EVERYONE

I HAVE A 2001 C240 6 SPEED SPORT PACKAGE AND I JUST GOT THE CAR FROM THE SHOP FOR BAS AND ESP SERVICE AND THEN WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY GOING AROUND 70-80 MPH THE CAR "JOLTED". IT ACTED LIKE IT WAS OUT OF GAS.........IT SLOWED DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY WHEN I HAD THE GAS STEPPED ON ALL THE WAY DOWN. THEN, IT WOULD JUMP BACK TO NORMAL. IT JOLTED BACK AND FORTH SEVERAL TIMES. ANYBODY HAVE A CLUE OF WHAT IT MIGHT BE OR ANYBODY ELSE EVER EXPERIENCE THIS?

I CALLED MY SERVICE REP. AT THE DEALER AND HE SAYS IT MAY BE A SENSOR THING WITH MY AIR FUEL RATIO, NOT SENSING ENOUGH FUEL OR AIR. I'M REALLY DOWN RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I CAN'T HAVE IT LOOKED AT UNTIL NEXT WEEK. I HOPE THAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY.

THANKS.

try disconnecting your battery for about 30 minutes, I've heard people have done that to reset computers...

I wouldn't do that - wouldn't all the error codes be erased then? The dealer will find nothing stored in the computer.

if the car has a major problem then the computer will still come up with the dtc
