E 320 Bluetec
What's that surge?

Hi everyone,
I purchased my 2007 E320 Bluetec last August with 110,000 miles. Since I purchased it, it has an annoying surge when accelerating once underway; it's particularly annoying on the highway when I need to accelerate harder. The car idles just fine, has good power and 4,000 miles later seems to not have done any damage. I've replaced air filters, fuel filter and air intake manifold gaskets but to no avail. I brought it to Mercedes who couldn't figure it out as no codes were put out on their machines. I think they're a bit limited. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I love the car and would love to get to the bottom of this. Thank You.

Are you sure you're not just feeling the turbo kicking in? It takes a few seconds to really start spinning/boosting.
