Has anyone else experienced Hesitant Acceleration? When I step on the gas to pull out into traffic, there is a slight pause before the car goes. It just doesn't seem responsive to me.
Thanks for the answers. It is an Automatic, and I made sure its in Sport mode. I’m not too worried, now that I know it’s normal. Maybe Ill look into a sprint booster in the future
I noticed the same hesitation on my 05' C240 4-Matic and had a similiar experience with my 98' C230. But I think the acceleration feeling from 60-80 is a lot more fun on this car.
It's a gizmo that remaps the TPS so that the accelleration is instant instead of the delay inherent in MB automatics. Also when you are passing, the tranny kicks down much faster. Overall it makes you car feel more lively. It's about $250. People that have done it swear by it. It takes time for you to learn to drive the car as it will leap out when are used to it rolling out. I'm used to that on our Wrangler, it's fun. I'm going to wait and see if an engineer in Germany can do it, he's brilliant and made us SLK guys a single touch top activation for 20 euros, how can you beat that?
