rattle

The car in question: 2006 W203 C200 CDI (OM646) The air filter housing rattles horribly. I was told there are 4 rubbers (mounts?) of two types that need to be replaced. I easily found the kind both on ebay and the Febi parts catalog: Air Filter Housing Mount Front Mercedes C 200 CDI C Class...

Ok folks I'm giving serious consideration to a W212 5.5. After a couple of drives in XFs (the engine I want only comes on 20" wheels) I found the ride too hard and while I really wanted to buy British for a change, it's not the car for me. I drove the W212 coupe today and was quite impressed...

Hi all, First post...so please be gentle :p My 2013 SLK350 has developed a short-but-loud rattle on start up which happens about 50% of the time - sometimes after a drive and a short stop, sometimes on a cold start. It usually lasts between 2 and 5 seconds, but sometimes lasts longer and...

I've got a 2012 (62) C63 Coupe, 22k miles and has had a rattle coming from the rear parcel shelf. It's correlated to road smoothness and speed, gets worse when faster and bumpier.....! Mercedes have had it twice, replaced the rear speaker unit once and 'padded it out', no improvement! Has...

I've noticed in the morning not sure whether its all the time or only on occasions when I start the vehicle there is a rattle which clears after a few seconds I have read on the forums/google this could potentially be due to the timing chain being stretched or something to do with the oil, I...

The car is going back this week at some point so I'm not too fussed what the issue is, however did wonder if others do this and or is this something I should get checked out prior to returning? It's made this noise a couple of times but every time I've started it over the weekend and today it...

Hi all Firstly thank you to all that have contributed to this forum. It has enabled me to carry out a lot of work myself saving me hundreds of pounds in labour. The history I bought the car last February. Full dealer history one owner with 72,000 miles. It had a very lower dull rattle...

Hello, I've had my new C200 Sport [W205] for 3 weeks now. From collection, I have suffered an annoying and very frequent 'buzz'-type rattle emanating from the external lights switch installation. It is typically repeatable by driving over cat eyes at speeds above circa 50 mph. A gentle...

Hi, My C320 Coupe (manual g/box) have developed a quite subtle rattle when I turn right. Its quiet enough that I can't hear it with either window open, but when going around a roundabout at 20mph+ I can hear a rattle through the chassis. - I cant feel anything through the...

It's driving me crazy. It appears to come from the rear self but could be the sunroof. Any idea on how to sort this? Car is going for a service soon and I intend to mention it to them but considering the car is 4 years old, I am not expecting much sympathy from MB. Thanks

My car used to daily commute some 20 miles along the local rural roads. The roads department re-chip these roads most summers and leave it for the traffic to pack down. A few years of this resulted with the sills looking very poor with damaged lacquer and no amount of cutting back was going to...

Hey people My C class Coupe is booked in for its very first service I have asked mercedes to have a look at a newly developed rattle from the rear shelf but just incase they cant find it has anyone else had this problem ? I read the amg's also suffer tia but couldn't find a fix Thanks...

I have had a rattle from under the car which has been rather annoying. I had the car up on the ram today (as the wheels were being balanced) so decided to have a poke around and as soon as i give the lower cat a quick bang there is the rattle. i have heard people just knock the insides out...

Has anybody used any sort of home made brackets to stop the airbox rattle ?? E class E270 03 Reg Its doing my nut in Engine mounts swapped and the aire box rubbers are new Cheers :wallbash::wallbash:

I have a bit of a knocking sound coming from the rear of the car - possibly just bushes and not much to worry about so no worry there. When I have the nearside windows down (particularly the rear) there's a very "tinny" rattle that seems to be coming from the rear n/s wheel area. I had new...

hi, I sold my W210 E55 last week and started looking for another car and i ended up buying a C43.The cars done 118k it has a rattle whilst idling,the car had been stood for over a year so i changed the oil and the rattle had gone, but today the rattle has come back. Any ideas as to what it...

Newbie here, good morning all. Just bought a CLC 180K in black, 47000 mls, Noticing a rattle on start-up that disappears after a very short time as if the oil has reached the top of the engine, Is this normal? or am I looking at cam chain fail, another point to mention oil level appears to be...

Hi, I hope you can help me get to the bottom of the noise coming from my car - it's driving me mad! It's a 2007 W204 C320 CDi Sport 4-dr with the dynamic handling package (the sport button that firms up the ride, steering, gears and throttle) and 18" wheels, so it's never going to be the...

I have a rattle in the rear of my 320 estate I can't find. I have tightened the spare wheel and covered up the jack and tools but still its there. Could it be the rear automatic blind or, the self closing locking mechanism on the hatch needing adjustment ? Any suggestions welcomed and thank...
