I have a 2004 Mercedes CLK270 and I have a problem with a knocking/rattling noise from somewhere near the passenger's side rear corner. Its really noticeable on rough road surfaces - in fact it can be quite loud at times. Its so noticeable and loud that you would think that when the car was...

Hello people, I recently bought a lovely almost rust free 210 e300 diesel with only 94,000 miles by only 1 registered keeper. I usually work with old Japanese 4x4s and don't have too much experience with Merc diesels. It has no apparent starting problem and starts without drama hot or cold...

My S320 has just had an MOT and passed ok except I can hear this knocking/ tapping type noise when travelling on slightly bumpy surfaces. I don't know much about the car yet as I've only just purchased it. I'm thinking it could be a fractured shock absorber as had a similar issue with my C200...

I had the ball-joints replaced on my 300TD recently, but now have a worsening knocking noise coming from the front right suspension. It knocks over bumps, and I can also get it to knock by driving slowly and applying the brakes. It's definitely getting worse. I'm suspicious that a bushing may...

108cdi knocking noise from engine bay Hi again all. The saga continues. Got the van back after getting the clutch done and it's spot on but now there is at least one if not more horrid knocking noises when moving that were not there before. The garage can't recreate the noise when the van is...
