Hi I can't use the forum search function on my phone for some reason as it keeps disappearing so I'm not sure if this has been answered before. Basically our A150 seems to pulse or bounce at any of the rev ranges. It happens every couple of seconds and is most noticeable when maintaining a...

I have an unusual problem with my 2011 Viano 2.2CDI. The rev counter keeps bouncing by about 100 revs when under light load. It generally jumps up then goes back to the same point almost instantly every few seconds. There is no real pattern to it and I can also just feel the car physical surge...

Hello, I have a issue with the passenger door lock of my c-class (W203) year 2004. It bounces when the car locks. Looking at previous posts, I understand it is a common fault and it is caused by the failure of a small spring on the locking mechanism. I need to change this mechanism, but in...

I have had my car some seven years and never had any issues with it, however yesterday when I went to unlock the car, the drivers door button began bouncing, sounds like a gun repeating, same when I lock it. Sometimes it doesnt lock, it ends up with the button up. Any ideas or help!! Thanks
