My 1995 C220 has the following problem. When I approach a stop and get the
car below 5 mph, the engine will surge or rev up and down. It also has a
problem with starting. When I start it in the morning it start fine. When I
come out of work and start it, it will struggle. When I give it gas it
stalls. When I restart, it is fine. Any suggestions?

I had a similar problem with a 98 C230. The oxygen sensor may be the
culprit. take it to your dealer and let him run a code scan. That might
pinpoint your situation.

In this case, you have to do some diagnostic... it can be fuel pump relay...
it can be idle control valve if equipped... or you got some vacuum leak.
There is alot of thing to check.

Ok. Thanks for the reply. I now have a new problem that has developed. My
turn signals are intermittently working. Sometimes fully working, sometimes
making a small crackling sound and somewhat working and then sometimes
nothing at all. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Usually the signal stalk need replacement.

Could the signal stalk also cause a problem with the wipers. It seems that
when I put it on the intermittent setting is sporadically works like the
turn signals.
