I have a C230 W203 2k6 V6 2.5l.
I have a problem that my car has unstable rpm tachometer when I start it and the engine is cold. It is automatic up to 1,200 rpm & then down to about 700 rpm immediately like I throttle it. Does anyone have any ideas for this problem?
Moreover, I have 2 error codes said that "P2188 P2190 which show the system too rich at idle bank 1 & 2". Any diagnose for these???
And I want to remove MAF sensor to clean it but I can disconnect the electric connection from this. The picture is below:
I need your help because I find that I cant found 2 clips like some w203 pictures shown on the Internet (yellow arrow)
Anyone has seen these problems & have any ideas, please help me.
Thank you very much!

Yes, my brother will help me. Before I ask him, I just want to see how much I know my car. That is the reason why I open this topic. Hope everything ok!
It's hard to get the connector off. I'm not certain but it has either a button to push on it to release a latch that holds it together or a latch or two that you need to lift to separate it. Then pull hard it will come off. Be sure to clean the connector with electrical connector cleaner while it's apart.
