Help! Problem At High Speeds
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.
