niggles CLK 320 Convertible 2001

Hi,

With the 'B' service upon me for for CLK I have a few bits that need sorting out. Hopefully nothing major . Here we go:

1. Exhaust rattles when moving off, low level of acceleration
2. Passenger seat vibrating, can see it moving
3. Windows judder when going down
4. Steering wheel vibrates when driving above 60 mph
5. Steering wheel offset when driving in a straight line
6. Vibration on the accelerator pedal when above 60 mph
7. Car moves forward very slightly when gear is placed into 'P' position after driving
8. Noisy brakes, especially in the morning and when returning home from work
9. Passenger door bottom right speaker blown

Would appreciate if anyone can help with advising me what may be the cause's and fix's of the above.

Garages can give alot of bu**sh*t

TIA

My passenger seat headrest tends to ratte if nobody is sitting in the seat - annoying but got used to it

My driver's window is juddery going up and down.

Try silicon spray on the window rubbers - that should sort the judders out.

Well, 1 - Anything from a loose bracket to a broken cat
2 - ? but poss related to 4,5,6
3 - A bit of silicon lubricant
4,5,6 - Tracking is out - needs adjusting - Dealer £200+ or Tyre shop £40
7 - All autos roll forward a foot or so in Park. Perfectly normal.
8 - Depends on the noise but may need new discs
9 - Need a new speaker - if not under warranty then get a quote first and call a car hi fi fitter.


All minor stuff really.
