uneven

Hi all - Happy New Year - It's been a while! Now between company cars, but Mrs B has another SLK, this time auto. Within a mile, the revs start to hunt.... Could be...? Electronics induced? Gearbox induced? Settles down after a further mile.... Appreciate your thoughts.

Hi I wonder if anyone has any suggestions as to why my tyres are wearing on the outside shoulders? The tracking was done about a year ago when one tyre was wearing on the shoulder excessively (and pulling to one side), I got new tyres on the front (Arrowspeed from ****fit). Now both front...

Hi, I have just bought C220 CDi 52reg elegance auto 100,000 on clock, which is problem from start 2 weeks ago. On my way from London to Scotland, till halfway it was fine and then suddenly I felt loss of power along with stall at lower speed. Anyway reached home and local mechanic changed MAF...

Today I had the day off so set about changing the front springs and shocks on my SL500. Suffice to say that it was a fair amount of work as I didn't have the special Mercedes spring compressors. Anyway, the long and short of it is that having changed the springs and the somewhat tired...

The problem occurred when Merc (Main dealer) replaced some fuel pipes in my car after I was having a diesel smell in the car. And Since that day I am having a uneven idle, the RPM hand basically goes down not up in my case and the even the lights flicker as well when the RPM goes down feels...

hi all my 1988 e200 carat ticks over slighty lumpy, iv changed the plugs, cleaned the connections in the leads, changed the air filter, rota arm & distribitor cap but still no joy, ant idea's? cheers

My CLK 500 has just been serviced......all normal items undertaken plus all spark plugs were replaced. The car seems to run perfectly for about 20mins and then will be a brief period of "unevenness" from the engine, usually at a road junction at idle, and then it will be ok again. Any ideas?

When driving at slow speeds over uneven ground i get a rattle/vibration from something that is hitting bodywork somewhere, whatever it is seems like probably is fairly heavy from the noise it makes. I can feel it through the back seat if i put my hand on it, it doesnt seem like its inside the...

Hi everyone, My first post! Got a '02 C220CDI auto estate just two months ago, I have always loved Merc's and this is my first diesel. The car runs great, seems to have all power intact but it's fuel consumption is unstable. I'm using the car for commuting, 40 miles in each direction to work...

Hi Can anyone give any advice on a braking problem I have with my 2002 E220 CDi auto? Basically, the problem is more noticeable at lower speeds ( 5 - 25mph) and particularly on smooth road surfaces. When braking normally there is a uneveness which results in 'backward - forward' judder...

I bought a 2006 Mercedes E280 Avantgarde ex-demo from a Mercedes main dealer 12 months ago which had a fully fitted Brabus body kit, sports suspension and 20” Brabus alloys etc etc The first problem was encountered when I first drove the car fully laden and the tyres were rubbing on the wheel...

I am having big problem with the front tyres on my Eclass. There are 18 inch AMG and always wearing the inside wall very bad .Camber and tracking ok. Any answer to it??The rears do the same ,but mo as bad as the front ones. Also the wiper marked the windscreen . FOR one time i try non...

Can someone tell me what is happening to my engine? It started about a month ago, I live in central London so it takes ages before I get to an open road, so I am in traffic for at least half an hour. The car starts fine and continues to run perfectly for about 5 mins or about 1.5 miles, the temp...

Hi there. I have managed to find myself an S plate 300 Turbo Diesel estate and it seems a great car. I noticed that the two rear tyres were worn right down on the inside of the treads. The outside parts still had plenty of tread. Can this wear be caused by worn bushes on the rear...

The outer tread on both the front tyres of my E320CDi is wearing down quicker than the rest of the tyre, I assumed that this would be a matter of just getting the wheel alignment set, I took it in to a newly set independent merc specialist, to ask advice, I told them that it had just had new...

I was wondering if any of you very clever chaps :D can offer advice on my year 2000, w210 220 cdi, apart from setting fire to it, that is... when i start the engine the tickover is uneven, this lasts for about 30 seconds or untill i drive the car and it settles down. Usually worst when the car...

I have a E 270 Cdi W211 fitted with 19" after market wheels - purchased from reputable suppliers. I have just had front tyres changed and noticed that the inside edge had worn through to show the steel belt ! And yet the tread across the tyre was legal. Is this tracking, or a problem...

Hi All, just a quick one, i know you can have your front wheels and tyres aligned , but is there any adjustments on the rear wheels? I only ask as i had a rear tyre blow out on me last week and when i looked at it, it had seriously worn but only on the inside. I kow if it wears on the middle its...

Hi guys, some advice required please. Recently had a 'B' service on our 208 CLk Cab. and they picked up that the front tyres were wearing unevenly - almost bald on the outer shoulders. The recommedation was to get the geometry checked when the tyres were replaced. With the state of the roads...

When I bought my car 2 years ago after 2 months I notice that the 2 front tyres were wearing very heavy on the inside so much that they were getting close to the metal bits in the tyre. I complained to them that the car was tramlining and maybe the tracking needed checking. After this 2...
