#60 of 92 Resetting C240 electrical system? by joo8450 Apr 26, 2009 (6:53 pm)
The ignition switch will not turn after fixing squeaky noise on driver side seat. I should disconnecting battery cable prior to unplugging electrical wires. I think that it has open circuit in feedback system had to reset. Anybody had a similar experience on this matter?

#62 of 92 Air conditioning - intermittent air flow by phycmc May 06, 2009 (1:37 pm)
I have a '00 C230K. The air flow is working intermittently - usually on starting the car the air will not flow independent of the position of the fan-speed dial. Usually after a few minutes of driving the fan comes back on, but it does not always remain on. Is the cause likely a loose connection? Is there a simple way I could diagnose?

Replying to: phycmc (May 06, 2009 1:37 pm) I have a 2005 C230. I fixed the problem by changing passenger room air filter (open batterie cover and you can pull the filter out) Mine was black and never touched by the experienced MB people . Also added a little R14 AC fluid. Everything works fine now. rgds Steve Replies to this message: barrym (Sep 22, 2009 7:59 am)

The car is making a terrible rattle/pop screech sound when we first turn it on and put it in reverse. It does this whenever we put it in reverse. We took it to a repair person who "specializes" in Mercedes, since we don't have dealership where we live, and he said he didn't hear it. IMPOSSIBLE. It is noisy and embarassing. Also air conditioner just stops blowing air for no reason and after a few minutes just starts up again. Any thoughts?

I have a C230 Sport with 66,000 miles (2006) and the check engine light came on. The dealer in Memphis says that it is the balance shaft due to the sprocket and I would like to know if that is the same thing as the soft cam gear??Either way the part is inside the engine and the dealer wants me to pay $5000 most of which is labor because the engine will have to be completely broken down and put back together. I told the dealer are you crazy???That means the part was defective from the manufacturer. Anyone else encountered this or a similiar problem??For that price I might as well trade it in....

#66 of 92 rattling doors by speedshift Jul 08, 2009 (4:33 pm)
Just wondering if anyone who owns the latest generation C has has a problem with the rear doors continually rattling. My 2008 C300 has had rattles and clunks from the rear passenger compartment since day one. At first I thought it was maybe the headrests. I mentioned it when I brought the car in for service, and the Mercedes mechanic wrote on the workorder that he'd "adjusted" and "lubed" the rear doors. Didn't fix the rattles, which are more-or-less constant over all but the smoothest roads and under braking and acceleration, particularly shifting (the car has a six speed). The clunks do sound like the windows moving, and maybe the rattles are the door panels. I can't believe the body is flexing that much, almost like they forgot to install a structural brace. I doubt it's that, but it's either the doors aren't installed properly or some kind of design defect. Anybody have any experience with this, or any ideas?

Replying to: tjeq (Jun 20, 2009 1:11 pm) My car is doing the same thing you are explaining. Did you ever find out what the sound was and why your A/C was acting up? I'm just trying to figure out if I should get rid of the car or take it in.   Thanks, Mike Replies to this message: tjeq (Aug 11, 2009 7:47 am)

Replying to: msingle (Aug 10, 2009 5:47 pm) Nobody seems to know what is wrong. We are frustrated.
