Hi guys, this is for a friend who has a 51 reg is200se auto. He told me if he is parked up idle for about 15mins his temperature needle jumps north and he can smell a dry engine smell (his words), im asuming its a burning smell, and then when he decides to pull off, the car hesitates to pull off judering/jerking for a moment then drives fine.

Any thoughts?

With the temperature going high when stationary I'd make sure the cooling fans are operating correctly and possibly look at the thermostat. It could also overheat if running lean so possibly a fuel injector issue - maybe try a fuel cleaner.
