C220 excessive revving at start up and neutral?

I have a 94 C220, for the past few days I noticed my car was driving weird, especially at take off. The acceleration was faster than normal without me even pressing the gas, I felt like the car was driving without me. Just yesterday it was literally driving without me even when I break it eventually stops but continues to slowly edge. When I start the car or in neutral, it revs very high. In drive or reverse, no gas is necessary as it seems to be driving by itself. Any help or suggestions?

Certainly check for a sticking throttle and idle air valve if fitted.

If nothing is found it could need the engine management defaults restoring. Sometimes disconnecting the battery for a few hours or overnight will reset things and sometimes diagnostic equipment with the right software is needed.

Sounds to be a loose or corroded wire/s at either starter motor or at battery fusible links.
Also check the earth strap (Cable) between engine and bodywork.
Hope this helps, MMP

check your main harness wire. The harness wire becomes brittle and will eventually short circuit your car. Stalling and hard starting is the initial symptom. If not replaced soon, your car will smoke and eventually affect your computer box

My c220 car will not start in park

The natural safety switch if defective.

This switch is part of the linkage and it give signal on the ECU which gear you're in + turn on reverse light when you are in reverse.

I will vacuum out selector area and move the lever back and fourth to free up the dirt and dust.

You may luck out or it's time from the shop.
