Car Forum / Mercedes-Benz Cars / January 2005w124 throttle feel
I've driven four w124s--one with a four-cylinder, and three with sixes. All of them seem to have this heavy throttle spring, or something--when I push gently on the throttle while stopped, nothing happens, then, as I press harder, the car (with my uneducated foot?) surges forward. I'm assuming one gets used to this, as I don't hear people complaining about it. I've never driven a w124 with a v8 (400e/e420). Do these feel the same way? Thank you, Mike > I've driven four w124s--one with a four-cylinder, and three with sixes. > All of them seem to have this heavy throttle spring, or [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > I've never driven a w124 with a v8 (400e/e420).

This is something you get used to and don't even think about after a couple of days.
