A-Class 18 inch AMG Alloys wobble/ wind noise

[AndyAMG1]

Hi everyone - just bought a lovely 2015 A-Class 180D with the 18 inch AMG alloys and full AMG body kit. I love the car but a couple of niggles. Firstly the wind noise and road roar is pretty bad at anything over 45-50 and secondly there is a wobble/vibration that comes in at circa 65 mph and persists to 80 mph when it smooths out. It is particularly pronounced in 6th gear. The car is booked in to have the wheel alignment and balancing checked out but any ideas? The car was serviced when I got it and it was bought from a main dealer so I wasn't anticipating any problems.

The wind and road noise are deemed to be normal in the A Class, I had a 14 Plate 220 D and it was the same, your "Wobble" should be sorted out by the alignment and balancing!.

I'm not putting you off this Website but www.aclassclub.co.uk can and will give you more info regarding all Models of the A Class!

If you got it from a main dealer, they should be responsible for the work, as they have sold it as not fit for use, get back to them and get them to sort it.
