Trans. Hesitates On Start
I have 89 300SE.
I am the original owner and it has 93,000 miles on it. The car runs smoothly but sometimes when I press the gas pedal from the stand-still start, the car hesitates to move. The more gas I give, more it hesitates. I can feel the engine pressure building but it barely moves going maybe 1 or 2 MPH. Then suddenly, the car jumps and drives. It does not do this all the time. But when it happens it drives me crazy. Is it a trans or engine problem? I would appreciate some advise! James K. Last edited by EMRINC; 07-22-2002 at 01:23 PM. |

If the tachometer doesn't start increasing, then the problem must be in the engines' fuel system.
Possibly a problem with air flow position(sensor) as it doesn't happen every time.

Me too!!!!
My S500L does this aswell, when i floor it from a standstill there is nothing for about 3/4 of a second, very unnerving during quick moves.
