#2 of 681 List of Known Problems by kenyee Jan 29, 2001 (8:51 pm)

#3 of 681 Passenger side A-pillar/dashboard creaks by drew_ Jan 31, 2001 (8:39 pm)
Spraying some silicon spray into that area (along the base of the windshield/dash) and letting it work its way in for a few days solved the probem for me. However, I did mention it at Service A. FYI, according to the work order, "A-pillar trim fit foam under dash corner to realign corner of dash. Refit A-pillar trim". The slight amount of play that used to be there is now completely gone. It is as tight as the A-pillar trim/dashboard on the driver's side. No squeaks, no creaks.   Drew Host Vans and SUVs message boards
#4 of 681 cabin air filter by jmsintx Mar 05, 2001 (5:15 pm)
How do I get to the cabin air filter for replacement ? Is it behind the glove box like on the E's ? TIA. JMSinTX
#5 of 681 ML 430 by lsl1207 Mar 07, 2001 (5:26 pm)
I have a '00 and at 10k it needed new brakes and at 26k it needed a new transmission. At one time or another all of the computer lights go on for no reason. Next time I'll buy Japanese...
#6 of 681 Problem w/Bose stereo by dietmike Apr 03, 2001 (6:14 am)
My upgraded Bose stereo on my 2001 ML320 Sport seems to have a reception problem. Most of the major stations in the Dallas, Texas area come in "weak". It sounds as if the treble cuts in and out just a bit. The CD works fine so I know it has something to do w/the antenna/tuner.   Where is the antenna, in the windshield? .. and has anyone else had this problem?   Thanks!
#7 of 681 Passenger side window creak/pop by tlwwso Jun 08, 2001 (6:41 pm)
I'm getting a popping noise coming from somewhere at the base of the windshield on the passenger side. I saw the post from Jan. and didn't know if this is the same problem. The service department can't seem to fix the noise. Any suggestions? Thanks.
#8 of 681 Oil Level Sensor by djdj Jun 09, 2001 (8:28 am)
In the general M-class commentary I have read that several owners have had problems with false readings appearing.   OIL HI frequently comes up because it takes 8.5 bottle of oil and somedays mechanics pour in 9 whole bottle.   But the problem could result from a bad sensor.   After a 4 day battle with my dealer, the truth came out that this sensor is frequently defective. Mine read "OIL HI" and then "-2.0".   The sensor needs to be replaced and it happens so often the dealers keep a number of the replacements on their shelves.
#9 of 681 Seized fuel pump by synthroid Sep 17, 2001 (6:39 pm)
I have a 2000 ML320 and this is the second time that I have been stranded due to a seized fuel pump. Am I alone? Also, I have had numerous problems with the air conditioner, side door film, easily chipped paint, cracked rear support, etc. I never expected the MB to have so many problems.
#10 of 681 synthroid/fuel pump by biker5 Sep 18, 2001 (6:48 am)
Hey, Buddy You are not alone, It happened to me twice also, if you read my post a few months back, my fuel hose busted on me while I'm driving in a high speed on a highway my ML just died and that was one of the scariest moment of my life I have my family with me. I just thank god and I managed to pull my ML to the safe side of the highway. They replace it twice and so far up to this date I don't have any problem. Take it back to the dealer and have them replace. Good Luck, Jim
#11 of 681 98 ML320 ETS light ON all the time??? by svasile Sep 21, 2001 (5:09 am)
Did anyone experience this problem? I was driving on the highway, a couple of days ago, and I noticed the ETS light (second left on the dashboard) being ON. It stayed like that eversince, when the engine is started, with the exception of 2-3 seconds right after I started the engine ytesterday day. I thought it may be a fuse, and this is how I saw in the fuse box that F22 coresponds to cruise control + traction control (ETS) + ... The fuse was fine, but this is how I got to test the cruise control, that I don't usually use, and found out it's not working anymore. So, please, if anyone had this problem before me, tell me, what should I expect if I go to the dealer? Is the diagnostic free of charge? This would be my first time going to the dealership with a problem...   Thank you in advance, Serban
