I knew it had issues but hoping to find the cause - so hopefully you guys can help.
Firstly, what should the engine idle at? As i think 500 - 600 rpm seems kinda low, too be fair i haven't checked what my W211 idles at so haven't compared yet.
Also the engine at idle is really rattling like a can, until you get the revs at 1200rpm then runs sweetly.
Drove it today, pulls cleanly, kickdown works like it should, as does the cruise and all electrics - its just this engine rattling noise at idle
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
