94' S 500 rocking in Park
 
Hi All,

I have a S 500 with around 16K miles on it. When you place the car in park, it will rock foward or back (depending on the grade) up to around 2-3 inches. It has always done this since I bought it with 8K around 6 months ago. Is there something wrong or is this normal? I can't believe a car with 16K on it could have defective motor mounts, could this be what is bad? What other checks could I make?

Thanks,
Mark

Do you mean that when you let your foot off the brake while the car is in park that it will either move forward or backward (depending on the gradient) a few inches? If so this is perfectly normal, Mercedes's seem to have big pawls on park and it takes a bit before they catch. You should apply the handbrake before letting the foot brake off anyway.

Matt.
