2003 ML 350, car jolts forward when stopped at read light
My brand new ML350 when stopped at a red light keeps wanting to go forward from time to time. It jolts, stops, then jolts forward again. It doesn't do this everytime. I have over 700 brand new miles on it so far and I counted the # of times this happened was about 4. I called the dealer and they state that a light should come on in the dashboard saying there's engine trouble. I don't see anything though. They wanted me to bring it in for diagnostic tests.
The only other thing I could think of is since the brake and gas pedal are so close that I maybe hit both at the same time. The last time my ML did this I made sure my foot was only on the brake when I was waiting at a red light. Any suggestions or help as to why this could be happening????

Why even ask, do what the dealer said and be persistant in getting them to find the problem and replace it. Soundslike to me the engine idle is not smooth and steady so far as rpms are concerned.
