When starting my 300TE (12V) first thing in the morning, it makes a slight continious tick...tick...tick...tick noise for a few seconds (about 3-5 secs) until the oil pressure needle hits the top and then quietens to normal tickover........is this due to low oil pressure at start-up? Any cure?

Every so often the Grey/Silver component with SBC on vibrates and starts whirring. Does anyone else get this on their W211? It can be quite distracting!

When I first start the supercharged 2.3L inline 4 in my 99 C230 Kompressor in the morning, or after it has been sitting for a few hours, there is a noticable sound that is similar to a loud tick or maybe an cracked exhaust manifold's pfft pfft pfft. If you rev the engine while it is in neutral...

I have a 03 W211 E320 cdi. Since new, it has had a recurring problem with the Audio 50/COMMAND system. When the car starts, after about 5 secs to sometimes 1 min, the radio suddenly crackles, cuts out, then comes back on after only a couple of seconds. This normally disconnects the phone, and...
