Neither was the dash board sounding weird sounds, because of a bad design for the AC ducts, nor is it vibrating after 10 people balanced the wheels and looked at the car.
My next car will be BMW, because you can disassemble and fix it like a LEGO game.

I am happy to say that it took me less than 5 minutes to change my fog lamp bulb. As to the MB being a piece of crap, I sell at least 10 BMW parts for every MB part I sell. My 1997 E420 has over 148,000 miles and still drives like new. I'll ask my friend whose 1997 740I was in the shop for the first 4 months she had it what she thinks about BMWs. Go ahead and buy a BMW; I'll do the oil changes and an occasional bulb change on my MB and remain very happy.
