2005 E320 Shaking/Vibrating
 

Bought a 2005 E320 from Fletcher Jones Motor Cars Newport Beach, CA that is shaking/vibrating 60mph & up. Recently replaced tires with Goodyear Comfort Threads. The dealer also replaced the engine & transmission mounts but it still shakes/vibrates. Anyone had the same challenge? Any suggestion on how to fix would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You'll have better luck on the Tech forum in the future.

W210's had issues with lower control arm bushing; not sure if that designed followed to W211's also. As always, check ball joints and both inner and outer tie rod ends too.

Stock or aftermarket wheels?

It's stock... I'll post on Tech side too...thxs.

I have had violent shaking from 60-65mph twice in the past. Both times it was a tire with a small bubble. I know you just replaced the tires but I would check them again first before doing anything mechanical.

They tried it with test tires at the dealer & the car was still shaking. Thxs.

Sorry I couldnt help. I remembered with my car I thought of everything other than the tires. I'm surprised the shop cant figure it out. Let us know what it is when you find the problem. Good luck!

Will do. I'll bring it back to the dealer next week with their foreman to do a test drive. Hope they can figure it out. I don't want to keep on buying new tires! :cool:

Has anyone had a leass than satisfying experience with service/maintenance at Fletcher-Jones Mercedes Benz Newport Beach in Southern California?
