    Mercedes W205 Acceleration noise

    I’ve had this sort of pinging/ringing noise when accelerating under load. Cannot really hear it when in neutral only when I gear I was able to get a video left foot on brake and accelerating, any clue what it could be? Thought maybe chain but mechanic said chain was fine.

    ML300 Lumpy/erratic acceleration

    Anyone experienced slightly lumpy acceleration on an ML300 CDI? I have a 2010 blue efficiency model which is generally fine but it intermittently as you accelerate feels lumpy. It doesn't ever seem to do it if you accelerate quickly, only when you are gradually accelerating.
