Howdy -
My '91 300D 2.5T (110k miles)acts like the accelerator is dropped too fast
when I remove my foot from the accelerator and go for the brake. The engine
seems to idle too slowly for a few seconds before regaining its composure
and idling smoothly once again. It seems like there a controller that
should be slowing the drop in rpm's as I begin to brake but instead is
dropping the linkage against the stops before a controller advances the idle
speed slightly.
If I slow gradualy it doesn;t do this - it slows in a natural, progressive
movement.
Any electronic gizmo's that do this sort of thing? Now, I'm off to browse
the electrical schematic's and WSM.
If you adjust the ALDA out (counterclockwise) between 1 and 1 1/2 turns
from the factory setting, I expect the effect you've noticed will
vanish. It has in the OM60x.96 engines I've owned.
