tick

Have had my w163 320cdi serviced and now has a ticking sound coming from engine. MB has confirmed issue. Anyone here replaced the bearing and can it be done with engine still in place? Also has anyone had to pay to have this done and how much would it be? Thanks

Anyone know why the tickover on a CLK 230 might only achieve approx 500rpm when hot in D, and only, say 50 rpm more in park. Can it be adjusted or is it a component issue? Thanks !

Hi all, just joined and looking for some help, I have a new c180 coupe bought in February this year. When the car has warmed up the exhaust seems to constantly tick. When stopped it still ticks for about 10 minutes after. It has been into the dealer twice so far and they have replaced the...

Hi, I know the older in-direct diesel engines are quite busy in their noise production compared to direct diesels and petrol. But I can pick up what I guess to be a certain diesel clatter (maybe on one cylinder) that I feel is wrong or shouldn't be there? Is that possible, maybe it's not...
