Hi All,

I have been noticing a small vibration accelerating gently from a standstill at low speeds (crawling in traffic uphill is worse), it feels like it is coming from the back end, and only happens for a second or so. There are no other vibrations at any other time at all. I was wondering, this seems Flex Disc ish? If so has anyone changed them as a diy on a C216, and if so is there any guidance? I can not find anything on here, and YouTube etc draws a blank.
 
Not entirely the response I was after. But I get what you mean.

Flex Disc seemed the first place to start, if it is more then I will get that sorted.

The diff could be the culprit, but I would expect different symptoms, and the centre bearing on the prop shaft could be it, but again I would expect slightly different symptoms on that, either way I will do the prop bearing while I am at it. Equally I know the rear trans mount has just been changed, so it is almost certainly not that.

If it is the diff I will go rebuild and quaife so no real shakes there.

I have found a YouTube clip of a guys doing a good job on an an E55, more than likely a similar process, just was wanting to know if there were any peculiarities of my specific car thats all.
