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...

Status quo on the Parktronic. I now have read out some codes. It complains on the following: 9091 9005 (A42B2 Left front center sensor) 9008 (A42B3 Left front inner sensor) 900E (A42B5 Right front center sensor) 9017 (A43B8 Right rear inner sensor) 901A (A43B9 Left rear inner sensor) To me it...

I have a MSX 7000 which is like 10 years old or something. It just works and I've charged the batteries multiple times. I recently had one car drain the AGM battery completely when we were on vacation for several weeks and I had to open the car with the metal key. I charged the battery in normal...

Since a week or so my wifes R350 Parktronic has a problem. The red dots come on but no orange dots or Parktronic working when parking the vehicle. It feels like this started when it was raining quite heavily but that may of course be a coincidence. Anyhow, I used my basic troubleshooting app...

Super - then I know. I'm a decently "green" so I will fix this soon but at least I know that I can drive without the engine blowing.

Great information - thanks! Is it any danger to drive the car meanwhile this is being "investigated" and later fixed?
