slight

Hi all Just today my steering has started to make an odd slight "honking" noise and when it does it (which is only briefly as you turn the wheel) I can feel a minor vibration through the steering wheel. Doesn't matter if its fast or slow, it's at about a quarter turn each way. I initially...

After my car was serviced recently i checked the oil when the car was returned and found it was low* , almost 1 litre low in fact so i had to go and buy a gallon of Mobil 1 cost me (£57!!!) I spoke to the service manager at the dealership and commented that while i was happy with their service...

I've been encouraged to start a new thread with an issue I'm having.. might be similar to ones I've found in other searches but not quite sure so thought to get some your opinions... When I am idling in drive gear (never happens in neutral), there is the slightest hint that the engine idle rpm...

When I move the gear lever from 'P' to 'D' or 'S' on my car, there is about a two second delay before it engages, and when it engages the car jerks forward a bit, it can be quite jarring if you rev the engine before it engages. There is also a rattling noise when the car is stopped on the...

Slight misfire at tickover runs fine rest of the time, doesnt do it straight away takes a couple of seconds once revs have dropped. Have serviced it all oils and filters spark plugs cleaned maf all to no avail. Plugs did not look very old, oil filthy as was air filter Any ideas appreciated...

Afternoon All, My wifes had a slight mishap reversing her ML and has hit a pillar in a car park. God only knows how as it has the parktronic and reversing camera fitted but we wont go into that :) She can't even use out little boy as the excuse as he was at home with me at the time...

As we start filtering out the "lack of use" and niggly things one thing is that the gbox has a thumpy change (sometimes) under revs / load, its smooth as ever on part load - the fluid is getting changed but is this a "trait of the car" or a sign that it needs a box :eek: or a sign that it needs...

Hi all In the last couple of days I have noticed a slight 'rattle' coming from the engine when the car is warmed up and idling. The rattle dissapears as soon as i put any revs on it. I'm going to get it checked out at my local indie but in the meantime - any ideas? Cheers Andy

does anyone know where i can get dents repaired in the london area as i have one on the driver side wing and hte other is on the bonnet or any company that would come out and undo this dent, i do not wish to go through the insurance process as this would rocket my insurance bill.

I have a very slight oil leak on my W202 (C280). Having cleaned up the engine and then run the car for a couple of weeks, it is apparent that it is comming from the front offside and rear nearside of the head gasket. I am aware that the 202's suffered from headgasket problems, but she's only...

Hi All Another day another problem...... Since the last couple of weeks ive noticed the sound of the car has changed and now resembles a diesel!!! I had a mate sit in it over the weekend who actually thought it was a diesel!!!! Problem seems to be occuring from the exhaust and when the car...

We have a E240 Estate 2004 with 46.000 km on it. When braking (not hard braking, just for slowing when apraoching lights etc) i feel a slight pulsation. Not hard, but it's noticable and the longer the more it irrittes me. The feeling does not come from the pedal, but it feels like the braking...

I'm having a small prob on the 560 SEC. The car has a very fine "miss", just around the 1500 rev mark, where its the most noticable. Its hard to notice, but its definately there! Its been there since i purchased the car, hoped it would have gone by now!! So far i've changed: Fuel pump...

when i 'thrash' the sprinter, it gets overly warm - gets to 105 ish degrees, cruising at 70 - 80. changed thermostat. flushed rad and engine (half an hour each) 'rad cleaner-ed' teh system - left it in for 2 days - a bit of an improvement (used to go to 110 degrees) OK - this isnt...

hardly noticeable.....except when on tickover at lights etc. Just a very slight 'judder' from the engine every second or so. Goes when depress accellerator slightly and go to 1000 or 1200 revs or so, but at 7/800 I can just tell it's there. No one else has noticed it, it's just not a silky...

I've got some slight shine on the leather seats, I think it was caused by the Turtle Wax leather cleaner and conditioner I used (i.e. when buffed up by moving bums, it shines up a little bit like shoe polish) I like the matt of the original finish. Any suggestions for leather...

Hi all. 1996 E220 Coupe Automatic 4 speed. (124) Just wondering if anyone has experienced a slight but noticable "whine" while the car is speeding up/ though the gears: Happens like this: Car moving off in 1st, low pitched whine is heard as the engine speeds up, gradually gets higher...

Hi people, have become aware of a slight rumbling noise coming from the rear of my C240 Sport. Sounds almost like a parcel shelf wobbling and creating a drumming noise and only noticeable over uneven road surfaces at around 25 - 35 mph. Had the rear shocks changed but this hasn't made any...

Hi all as you may know I have had some new wheels fitted and since then I have had a slight vibration between 85 and 110 which seems to clear (almost) from 120 up. I have checked the balancing and everything is spot on, do you think that this may just be a result of going to a low profile...

I used the engine cleaner CO2 the other day( i hear you already what what on ur engine etc) well it's developed a slight hesitation, mis-fire. It's got better, but when it starts up it's okay. 5 minutes or so later it starts to judder slightly. Gonna check it all over tomorrow and spray WD40...
