Ive just bought an r reg e200 auto. Its been standing for about 10 months but still started up occasionally.
I drove it back from the end of the road where i bought it from, the autobox is smooth and changes gear fine. When we had it running befoe i bought it the idle was fine.
When i parked up and put it into either neutral or park the idle went up to about 2000 rpm.
I tried kicking it out but it just increased the idle to just under 4k.
A mate of mine who works at a mercedes and bmw specilists suggested something could be sticking seeing as its sat for a while and this was also my initial thought.
Anyone got any ideas what the problem could be?
Cheers
Jim
