Hi everyone, I'm new on here having just bought my first merc... a mint black C220 elegance.
I've already sorted a little issue i had with my wiper thanks to the great 'how to' bit on pinning that gear, now i've got a it of an idling issue i'm hoping someone may be able to help with.
I can hear a vacuum leak through the right hand air vent next to my instrument cluster. Not only is it annoying because the hissing comes and goes as i use the throttle, but the car is starting to hunt quite badly at idle.
I've had a brief look in the engine bay and can't see an obvious vacuum hose going into that area, would anyone know what it could be?
It's definately eminating from the vent ecause if i put my hand over it, the noise stops, I'm assuming it's a vacuum leak due to it only making a noise at 0% or very light throttle, and i'm assuming that's the cause for the hunting!
Cheers is advance,
James
