- 2012 C Class Coupe CDI
Dear All,
I hope your well?
My first post on here and I am looking for further advice. C220 CDI coupe 2012 with 104k mileage.
1. I seem to have a wobble/vibration feel from the steering which can sometimes be felt a lot and sometimes very very faintly. It normally occurs at all speeds but not less than 20mph. I have been to WIM and had tracking and balancing done after fitting brand new Michelin pilot sport 4's. Yet the issue seems to carry on. I don't have no issues really with handling as it grips very well etc. A slight wobble can be felt and when it is windy here in UK, the car seems to be very hard to keep in a straight line and goes from side to side and I kind of have to fight to keep it straight, on normal days its not so bad. I have had a couple of indies check the vehicle but they seem to think it's fine. I dont agree.
2. I may have an ongoing injector issue, car shakes when I first turn it on at idle, like the revs go up and down, after a good 4-5 miles it does seem to go away until I put fuel in the car does it again or the car is left for a while it occurs again, wondering if this is what I feel?
3. My C220 feels very bumpy I must say, I thought this may be how the car is but I can certainly feel a lot more of the road than usual quite a lot through the pedals ( 7g auto box ) for eg; hitting a bump can sometimes cause the steering to twitch left or right.
4. I currently have 104k mileage on the motor but not had anything changed at all. MOT has just passed but been told I have the parking brake which is sticking which is causing a slight grinding noise at low speeds in built up areas where you can hear it and clanks over bumps.
Any assistance would be fantastic.
I used to have a scirocco which i was a member on a forum of that vehicle and was great.
many thanks all
