rattle

Hi all, Does anyone know how the overhead console (above the rear view mirror) on a B-Class comes off? I have an annoying rattle from somewhere inside it. I suspect it needs a carefully positioned screwdriver to lever it off, but any clues as to where the screwdriver should be put would be...

I've got a light metallic rattle from the passenger side front suspension on my 1990 300E. The recent MOT found nothing (the tester was looking for the problem), nor did the mechanic who I asked to look at it prior to the test. I've had a look too and to my eyes the anti roll bar rubbers...

Hi guys - I 've had my 2000 CL500 two weeks now and I have noticed a strange metallic rattle from what appears to be the rear of the car. My initial thoughts were it could be the exhaust fitting because I could only hear it going over bumpy ground or under low speed acceleration. I parked it in...

Following on from Mark's rattling C class thread, I've whittled down my CLS replacement to an E coupe (haven't chosen engine yet) but, in the light of all these rattling new model MBs, I'm a bit concerned as I too can't stand rattles and creaks! So, what's the experience here of E Coupes...

There's a long discussion on another thread about @Mark's woes with his C350CDI rattling and creaking. He is of the opinion that their is an inherent with this model. Mine has no such problem. I wonder how many people are experiencing such noises.

So my car is in the garage again this morning to try again to fix the rattles that have plagued this car since I bought it 9 months ago. At one point, they had managed to resolve ALL rattles but then the speedo misted up and needed replacing which of course meant dashboard out and surprise...

CL 500 '08 new to me. Getting a passenger seat/door metallic rattle when the seat is unoccupied - driving me nuts. There have been a couple of occasions when the seatbelt wont reel out unless the door is re-closed. Is it likely these are connected? Any help much appreciated.

Folks My 300te 4Matic has started making a metallic rattle but only when in reverse gear and moving. Will not do it in neutral if rolling backwards or forwards or in any other gear. This sounds like an internal gearbox rattle as if something is being dragged over a gear ratio. Somebody...

I have a 22 month old B Class 160 sport auto and when I pull away or drive slowly I hear a rattle coming from under the car - I can't see anything loose - the car only has 12k miles on - any ideas out there as we use the car a lot and don't want it to let us down - don't really hear it driving...

I've searched around on the forum and think I know whats causing my rattle noise, however I'd like a confirmation if possible. When starting from cold, I get a tappety-rattle from what sounds like the front-top of the engine. Classic diesel sounding noise. I've had very similar noises on two...

Recently there is a 'rattle' from the drivers door (CLK w209 cab). I have checked for any loose items and it goes away if I lower the window a fraction. Seems to be coming from middle of the window as it meets the door trim. Any tips and instructions to remove the door card would be appreciated...
