Dear All
I have a 2002 C200k SE auto elegance sal with Xenons.
I have been complaining of a loud grating noise that can be heard from within the car, only present when the engine and weather is cold.
The grating noise is like pulling a shower hose through a metal ring - a rachet grating noise!!!
It can be heard by placing the key into the ignition and turning the key to the second position. As soon as youturn the key into the second position - you will hear the grating noise. I admit that a low level grate can be heard and I feel that is acceptable, but to hear a loud audible noise is not acceptable!!!
The noise can be heard, even with the lights manually switched off, and turning the key to the second position.
The MB dealers have looked into it 3 times and have concluded that it is normal!!! I don't beleive this a all!!!
Does anyone else have the same problem with thier car??
All feedback much appreciated.
Tony.
