First off, there is no check engine light on. Twice today my car has revved and lunged forward slightly,...with my foot on the brake! The first time after it happened I immedialty put the in park and it revved while in park. What could this possibly be so I have an idea of what to tell the mechanic when I bring it in. Maybe what it might coast, also.

just tell the tech what you told us. no need for more, he will check it out for you.

could be a vacuum leak or an idle control motor.

anyones guess at this point. cannot give estimate till we know the failure
