#225 of 266 C300 instrument cluster- temp. gauge noise by annakong Sep 26, 2008 (6:24 am)
When I start my brand new 08 c300 sport, the temperature gauge whizzes and has trouble going to the proper temperature.   I've taken it to the dealer and they couldn't duplicate it. It happens 99% of the time. It starts when I start the car and continues throughout the entire car ride. Sometimes the sound dulls or gets worse (like it has been lately).   Its as if there is a little motor to get the temperature gauge going but it's stuck so it makes that sound whiiiizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.   have you had this problem? my car is only 3 weeks old.

Replying to: avatar1 (Sep 04, 2008 3:33 pm) c300/2008- fiddling around I stumbled across an option to change the gender of the voice. I actually saw the option of either "Barbara" or "Simon". I can't seem to locate how to do this again and change the voice. It's drivin me nuts!! Antone have a clue?? Thanks-Suzy
#230 of 266 Little things that bother even when covered by the warranty by be325 Nov 20, 2008 (10:03 am)
Side mirror on our 2008 C-300 makes noise when it closes (after you lock the car) and then when you unlock and open the door. Anyone having similar experience? This does not happen often ... once a week and usually in the morning. It should not happen to German engineering. Hans forgot to grease moving parts! How do you get in to do it? This kind of stuff should be permanently lubricated. I have been inviited to bring the car in. I don't want to spend an hour to get to the dealer and waste another hour after the repair is done. Little things have a great capacity for annoyance. Replies to this message: denny (Nov 20, 2008 8:30 pm) maximafan (Nov 22, 2008 6:29 am) denny (Nov 22, 2008 8:24 am)

Replying to: be325 (Nov 20, 2008 10:03 am) With the onset of colder weather my 2008 C-300 side mirrors have begun to intermittently make noise. The left one makes a screeching sound when closing and the right one makes a clicking sound. Both sound like a gear or something still trying to turn.. I also have a rapid rat-a-tat noise coming from the engine compartment that is very noticeable when stopped a traffic light. Will have these noises checked when I take car in next month and post what their diagnosis is. I find this stuff very annoying also because it has been my experience that things like this rarely get fixed and you end up living with them for the time you have the car.

Replying to: denny (Nov 20, 2008 8:30 pm) I need a little clarification. Are you saying that the side mirrors on the C300 automatically fold once you turn the car off, or am I misunderstanding something? If the car does have this, do you get power-folding mirrors in a certain package on the C300? I was curious, as I rented a Mercedes Benz C300 over the weekend a couple of weeks ago, and the model I drove did not have power-folding mirrors. Replies to this message: denny (Nov 22, 2008 8:24 am)

Replying to: maximafan (Nov 22, 2008 6:29 am) The power folding mirrors can be driver-programmed to either fold automatically when you turn off the car, or when you push a button on the dashboard. The power folding mirrors were part of the P-1 package on my 2008.
