Hi everyone
So, last weekend I noticed a bit of squeak slowing down. Then at 70mph a vibration, and fuel economy has dipped. I'm a novice, but it's obviously alignment or wheel ba lance
My dilemma is which do I pay to get done first? I wa thinking wheel balance, but then if that's not the...
On two occasions in the last week or so I've experienced a strange judder at about 70mph. When it first happened it felt as if the car had changed down a gear then quickly changed back up which gave a jolty type judder. The same thing happened tonight on the motorway at about 70mph and juddered...
I have found that my 54 plate CLK 240 auto will drive over 3000 revs through the range at normal speeds, but when driving on the motorway at 70 mph plus and hitting 3000revs the eml light comes on and the car drives like a 'bag of spanners' if I stop the engine and then restart the car again the...
hi - my 02 C180 automatic makes a resonating sound when on the motorway when get to the 60-75mph range.
it comes from the back, i'm guessing from the driveshaft, it doesn't make this noise when driving around town or going through gears getting up to 60mph and doesn't do it when go through...
Mine is 2,500 - which I believe is normal for this engine/gearbox but I still think is slightly high - probably the result of having a four-cylinder 180K rather than a torquey V6 or a diesel.
.. you've probably seen it on TV but the last thing I expected on Monday night when travelling @ 70 in the dark was to see a car coming towards me..
Luckily the outrageous swerving of cars ahead of me set the old risk radar off and I was already at a stop by the time I came across a complete...
Hi - I recently changed the wheels on my CLK W209 Facelift. I believe it is since then that I have had issues with the Cruise Control. It works fine up to around 75MPH but fails to hold the speed if set above this.
It almost as if the car is running at a slightly faster speed than the Cruise is...
Hi everyone,
My friend was telling me how his car shuts off completely at 70 MPH and he receives no warning lights. All the lights on the dash and power cut out completely.
He has been to Mercedes, although according to him they can not find the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I've recently changed cars from a W211 E240 to a R230 SL500. I've noticed drivers now tailgate me much more often and much closer when I'm in the overtaking lane of a dual carrigeway or motorway. I am not guilty of sitting there when there's room to pull back in safely. I will not be pushed into...
Hi Guys,
I've just bought my first Merc, a 2005 E320cdi and as beautiful as it is, i have one problem with it. When travelling at speeds above 70mph, i experience a mild vibration through the steering wheel and in the cabin generally. It gets worse as the speed increases and is very...
