C250 coupe

Hi everyone, I look forward from hearing from fellow car owners. I need to write a question regarding my 2012 c250 coupe, I'm not sur what the problem is and need help. On many occasions now I notice that when I pull away it seems that it sort of gets stuck in gear in auto ? First to second then just revs really high and won't change into 3rd. On the dial it the D is highlighted obviously but also the 2 next to it as well ?? It is really annoying me now and need to know what is wrong, can someone help ???

Hi, thanks for the reply but the thing is I'm not in manual shift mode. Im definitely in economy mode and it seems to get stuck in gear, just revs really high, then I obviously take my foot of the accelerator then it goes in ok.
It's really annoying me now, it doesn't happen all the time. Just now and again ???

If it only happens when cold, it's normal. Mine does it all the time after a cold start. My old c230 w203 did the same.
