I actually nailed it down. It's a pipe-holder that is loose (probably missing a screw and a nut) so I will check with the workshop about parts and possible help. It was visual when the car was in idle/neutral by looking underneath, the holder was rattling in sync with the noise.

A strange "rattling" noise can be heard from underneath the body of the car when A/C (air condition) is active/used (e.g when the AC button is lit (red LED)). The A/C works fine and it's as cold as it use to be but the noise is something "new" that I haven't heard/noticed before, and, maybe...

Maybe this post belongs in "Electronics and Audio" instead?

Have a new issue with my older R350. Lately the car will not crank when starting. I'm not 100% sure (yet) if it's only when the car is warm or not. For example; Left home the other day, car hadn't been used for a day and it's cold outside, drove for like 15-20 minutes, parked the car, came...

Removing the fuse for Airmatic (at least the compressor) is sufficient as well I guess? Is this what I would need to patch around this: http://www.air-suspension-shop.com/Compressed-air-hose-cutter...

I've diagnosed the problem to being a hose that has a leak at one point. I tried (as a temporary solution) to patch it with duct tape but it doesn't seem to be able to withstand the pressure so that's pretty much useless. I saw that there is a "repair" kit available on this site; Repair Kit -...

Half a year ago I had the workshop change the front suspension. The other day when I started the car I noticed that "familiar" thing that the car was rising (no message on the display though). After that the car has been parked for 2 days, now I saw that the car has lowered itself in the front...

I have to check and see, I know it was a lot of parts listed on the documents I got with the job. The parts you mention (stretched timing chain and worn guides/tensioner) can those parts be replaced without taking the engine out of the car (kind of "quick" fixes)?

My balance shaft was replaced by the dealer approximately 4 years ago (very expensive!). After that the car has done very few miles and we "over-service" the car and follow the scheduled services with the workshop. Now the engine light is illuminated with codes P1208 and P0016. I will have to...

One of my R-Classes have recently developed a problem with the rear wiper. When I activate the wiper on the stalk it stops around middle (like 90 degrees turn and point upwards). If I just leave the switch engaged it goes to the end position (180 degrees) and if I continue to leave it it will...

Question is if it has more than fault codes for Airmatic (like reading live values and calibration etc.)?

Thank you for your effort! :-) It seems that the text on the package is kind of generic for all their models?

Could you take a look (if it's easy) and see what type of tests can be performed on Airmatic with iCarsoft MB 2? I have trouble finding decent specifications on the net.

Which specific models from Autel and iCarsoft do you guys have?

I'm looking for a simple (yet powerful) diagnostic tool for my MBs. I have Carly today which is really nice for simple use but I need something that will take things a bit further and which can display live data, calibrate etc. Any good suggestions? I do understand that STAR is STAR but I...
