I've noticed when the car is in park and idle that it has a slight vibration that i can feel. Does anyone know what i need to do to get rid of it? my car has 54k on it.

 

I have had the issue since I bought and the dealer stated it is normal but I had them note it. There seems to be nothing that can be done.

 

i see. my mother purchased a 01 c320 and it had the same problem just a little more noticable but the mechanics at mercedes stealership said it was the engine and transmission mounts. 2000 bucks to fix. we decided to sell the car because its just to expensive to maintain. anyone else have any input on this? thanks

 

Gee Pasta put a Fluidamper on his car. I am not familiar with it , but from what I have heard it might help. They sell them at Summit Racing.

 

My 06 with 1900 miles does the same thing too, when I'm sitting in park my car kinda rocks slightly side to side, it's like a rumble from the engine is causing the vibration. Anyone else with this problem? I might take it in just to get it noted.

 

hmm.. yeah I have this same issue on my 03.5 with 33k miles... my idle is pretty loud because of this... will take it in on Wed. and see what the dealer will say....

 

please keep us posted

 

Luckily no...let us know what you find out.

 

there is a beast under the hood, and he cant wait to come out and play...thats what the vibration is.

 

lol good theory socal i like it!

 

I bet that is what the dealer will be telling folks. I got that basicly or rather a deal with it attitude.

 

It's just the rubber mount's. Exactly what you feel is the engine ready to roll. So give it what it want's people.

Later

 

Guys this occurs when the radiator fan turns on and causes the slight vibration from the fan blades, that's why it happens when you're idling!

 

Okay finally got my car back... Some rattles fixed... some still there... But the main thing is the Vibration is FIXED! IT turns out they replaced the Fuel Damper Assy. The car is quiet and no more vibrations at IDLE. Loving the car again... (well minus the rattles.. =( it rattles when I turn...)

 

i love that vibration actually.....lol. I think the same thing i fall in love with it more with that vibration. Its more like a burp or something from the engine. I always think to myself "my babys ready to unleash "
