My e500 Coupe in the last day has developed increased road noise. When the car was in for a service (in march) my indie (who I trust without question) advised that the nearside rear upper front arm bush & offside rear sub frame bush debonding and allowing some movement. It wasnt a massive issue...
Just want a sanity check on the the amount of noise I should expect when the rear panel closes at the end of the open/close roof operation.
We get a very noticeable metallic 'clunk' - is this normal or should it be much quieter?
Could of had this noise from the beginning when I bought my car but I had worn engine mounts which masked the noise,now they been replaced the noise is driving me mad :wallbash:
Sat with car idling there's a ticking coming from behind the dash :( appears to be there when driving too but engine...
Hi
Recently bought a cls500 on a 55 plate.
Around 4000rpm at full throttle it starts to make a whistling noise. I can only really hear it with the window open. By the time it gets to 6000rpm + the noise is so loud it becomes unbearable. First i thought it was a belt slipping, changed auxiliary...
Hi all
My drivers side front brake splash shield or back plate has thrown the lower mounting and is noisy over bumps etc. Are these fixable by tack welding it back in place or is a new shield easy to get and fit!
Assuming the disc needs to come of so SBC brakes need to be shut down first. I...
My CLS has 112,000 on so I suspect it needs some attention based on the noise it is making when I go over speed humps and the like.
I am thinking it is probably a ball joint but what else can cause it, car can be a little vague at speed as well.
Any suggestions ?
Hi,
Longdrive down M40 and M25 this weekend.
I noticed that at speed, the road noise was unbearably loud. THis was esp on the stretch of the M25 around the A3/M3 South West section
Also notice the noise was very speed dependent.
I have not noticed road noise before and was wondering...
Hi Just bought a 2007 R280, a strange 'pump' noise starts about a minute after starting, runs for around a minute the stops, sometimes happens mid journey - is that normal, any ideas? Thanks.

I bought my stock car last year, from a Mercedes main dealer.
My friend has just bought the 2012 P30 car, and it sounds very different from mine.

My new GLC has terrible wind noise above 50mph and can be heard at speeds as low as 35mph if there is anything but the slightest cross wind. It seems exactly like the problem being described by the C Class owners (buffeting at top end of front side windows) and it's driving me crazy.

Hi Folks,
I have been doing some research but still baffled with the issue I am experiencing.
Car = W211 e-class e280 estate (2008)
When I go over small bumps I hear a rattle down by the passenger front wheel area.
I thought it may be a ball joint so purchase a ball joint removal tool and front...
My C63s suffers from a creaking noise over anything but smooth tarmac. I've read that the US has identified a suspension problem that requires new springs and other parts. Has anyone in the UK heard of this? My local dealer denies all knowledge.

Hi folks
My w208 is off to the garage tomorrow to have the tracking sorted, and I've asked them to take a look at a potential problem with the steering while it's there.
Just to help me better understand what to expect, I wondered if anyone had encountered a similar problem.
The issue...
It has happened twice but it is definitely not down to road surface. Friday it happened after 25 minutes driving at 70mph but not noticeable at low speeds. Today, in the way to IKEA after a few minutes driving and at 70mph it came back. It disappeared when I got into town. I took the same route...
