slight

Seems some 55 AMG Engines suffer from a slight idle problem, while this is normally attributed, to HT Leads, Spark plugs or the big one Vacuum Leak. Another thing to consider is the OIL Cap, seems the cap has been superseded and the new one is a much tighter fit than the original, the original...

Seems to quite a bit of rattle... A class 2001 60K miles... Checked oil - no problems there. ?

Only recently noticed this on my 2001 A class... Seems to pull ever so slightly to the left. Nothing major - just seems easier to turn left than right. Also, if I'm turning on a long sweeping left I can point the car and the wheel will stay as it is and maintain the turn. Not so for right...

2008 W204 C200 CDI Manual 120k miles with Full Service History Yesterday after performing a three point turn my steering is creeking / slightly groaning when you apply a tiny little amount of turn in the right direction. You can feel a small nugget of resistance, almost a lumpy feeling...

Petrol 3.5 engine with 722.9 7 speed gearbox, Dec 2007 build. Noticed last night when on a gentle motorway run to pick up some friends from the airport that I have an issue with fluctuating rpm. I was on cruise at 55mph as I was running a bit early and noticed the rpm was fluctuating by up...

I drove to work today in the 124 E36 and noticed a few small things that are playing in my mind. Any thoughts/advice you have would be much appreciated as always! 1. Fuel guage didnt quite remain in one place at some points. It seemed to be moving up and down of its own accord a little bit. At...

Hi all, Some of you may remember that I was chopping in my 57 C320 CDI Sport for a 2011 "ex demo" C250 CDI Sport 125 Edidtion this friday. It is a great car, but I regret not having full leather and going back to the 4 pot. It's certainly quick off the mark but a totally different drive...

Dear all, I've my W123 a few weeks now and am totally in love with her! She's completely changed my driving style, now I'm just happy to cruise to Where ever I need to be! No rushing for me! This might have something to do With the fuel economy as well as the relaxing driving style my...

Hi guys, Ive been doing a lot of motorway miles in the last week and i have noticed a slight whine that increases with speed, I cant really hear anything until about 55mph and its drowned out at about 75mph.Im sure its coming from the rear end of the car and was hoping for some advice.I was...

I changed the oil on Monday on my W211 320 CDI and used this engine oil. Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel 0W/40 i have been using this for years in all my diesel Mercedes and other cars and never had this problem. But now when accelerating, i can hear this slight ticking sound which comes inbetween...

First of all let me say Hello from cold Cardiff and thanks for having me and apologies if this has been brought up before somewhere else on the forum. Back in January I bought my Mercedes Elegance C240 (W202) on a "W" Reg (2000). I then had a Romano multi-injection LPG system put on it. Ran...

Evening all, Bought some 17 wheels that were originally from a SL500 R230 (2003) for my 2001 c270 as part of plan to have two sets of wheels, one for winter tyres, one for summer. The 17 inch wheels I have bought are 8" wide, with 35 offset. However, having been up to local garage...

Hi All, I have purchased a set of staggered AMG wheels and had them all balanced. However I have noticed a wobble at around 56-60mph which disappears above 60mph. I would usually put that down to balancing but having had them balanced it seems strange that I still get a wobble. They tyres on...

Some time after the car was remapped it developed this little 'pause' when applying full throttle. :doh: It's definitely not changing gear or anything like that, but feels more like a brief misfire, taking a quick deep breath before giving full performance. Once the misfire is out of the way...

Hey guys i have come accross somthing very strange.:crazy: since last week I have noticed my car having a slight vibrating feeling when im hitting around 50-60mph but then it becomes less when i hit around 70mph Normal driving up to 50mph is fine but when go over 50 mph i also hear like...

This only occurs when I've been driving the car for a good few hours in traffic.. A few hours 2+ - traffic = stop start city driving. Also happens at idle (leave a friend in the car and run into a shop) This has been going on for a few months now.. The car is perfect other than this. The...

hi guys as you may have read in an earlier post i have started to replace my cloth seats for leather the only problem i have hit so far is on the front pax seat i have the airbag option inplace of glove box, however i am guessing the donor car did not, when i took the old cloth seat out i had...

I have been slowly fixing a few little niggles on my 2003 C320 saloon and I am now enjoying the car very much.:bannana: Two things remain that are still unresolved and I am not sure if they are related or not. When driving slowly in traffic I can hear a light metallic rattle that seems to...

Hi guys, just joined as have bought a lovely 2003 E270 Cdi elegance, just what i was after, lovely lovely car. i might be being jumpy here, you know how it is when you buy a new car, no radio on looking and listening for every noise etc, especially after reading all of the reviews/ forums...
