Mercedes benz clk320 convertible 2001
hello everyone. I have a problem with my mercedes benz clk320 2001 convertible. the car vibrates and kicks while I am not moving the vehicle and the engine is on (feeling that is going to shut down), but when I move the car around everything is ok and it runs smoothly. Not any light warnings are showing on the dashboard. Are the coils and sparks responsible for it? how do I resolve this issue?
 
Check the condition of the engine and transmission mounts.
 
If ignition (sparks) were the problem I'd expect it to be misfiring during driving - esp under load. As it seems to affect idling only, I'd look at the IAC (Idle Air Control) valve. Via reading the codes to begin with and/or by physically testing though a test method for that would help (Haynes Manual?) beyond it obviously having some defect eg, choked with carbon. obviously stuck, etc.
 
Thank you all!!
 
One last question! If I were to buy coils and sparks set including the cables, do you have any site to send it here? thank you :)

As said above, if it runs OK when moving it suggests that the problem isn't ignition related.

Fault code reading and a experienced mechanic is a better option than throwing expensive parts at it in the hope of fixing it 👍
