#17 of 34 Re: Is it worth price of maintenance to keep Mercedes? [frankn] by hamilton65 Dec 06, 2007 (8:41 pm)
Replying to: frankn (Nov 26, 2007 6:41 pm) I have a 2003 C240 Wagon 4Matic with 59k miles and no major problems. The door actuator went out on the drivers door and one of the tail lights burned out....thats it. I have read that they ironed out a lot of the problems during the first two years of production....or at least I hope they did. The car drives very nice and almost feels like our 1995 E320 Wagon. A little more power would be nice but it is just a wagon.
#18 of 34 Need Comments - 2005 C240 Mercedes Benz by egamb Dec 26, 2007 (4:47 pm)
Can someone provide comments and experience on my recent situation with my C240 4-Matic Mercedes Benz (2005 year).   When car is cold (I live in the Northeast), there is loud brake scrunching noise when I step on the brake.   Also, is it normal for the sterring wheel to be tight at slow speeds? It requires "extra effort" to turn. I also have a Toyota and steering wheel is never that tight as my Benz.   Thx in advance. Ed Replies to this message: 604doc (Dec 27, 2007 10:25 am)

Replying to: egamb (Dec 26, 2007 4:47 pm) While not 'Benz' specific, the crunching noise, if it goes away after one or two brake applications, could be just a small bit of rust that formed on the brake disc. My Jeep will do that, especially if I park it after driving in the rain, and not drive it again for a couple days.   As far as the steering goes, it would make sense that if the fluid is really cold, it may take a little extra steering effort until the fluid warms up. I would think it would have to be real cold though. Here in seattle, it doesn't get that cold, so I haven't really experienced the problem you have. Hope this helps a little. I'm sure some other MB folks will chime in.

#21 of 34 Water pooling/leak behind passenger seat c240 by jennsays Sep 14, 2008 (5:58 pm)
I obviously have a leak somewhere because I keep vacuuming out the area behind my passenger seat. We're due for a lot of rain, so if someone has a suggestions on how/where to check and see if I have a clog or leak, that would be great! 2002 Mercedes C240 gracias!

Folks, I am considering buying a 2004 MB C240 4Matic with 43,000 miles on it.   What, if any, negative experiences have people had with this model?   What is the most frequent repair issue that has come up with this car?   All responses appreciated!   Thanks.
