2006 S350 (W220)

Hello - I have owned a 2006 S350 for five months, and I love it. Second owner, I have all records, car in great condition. I have had a few things replaced: control arms and control arm struts; motor and transmission mounts. Car was always serviced on time at MB dealer; I have service history.

Drives well, handles well. I do have a few questions, and I thank you in advance for any answers/suggestions/advice.

1. When traveling at low speeds over uneven bumpy roads a lot of creaking is present, especially when the temperature gets below 50 F. Also, when I go over larger bumps a noise emanates from the right rear that sounds as if something heavy is banging up and down (one time for each bump). At high speeds on smooth roads there is no noise.

2. Service "A" is due in about 3,000 miles. What does this entail?

3. I assume that the engine is a M112, but I do not know the transmission number/type. Do I need to worry about the harmonic balancer pulley on this engine? Anything to know about the transmission in the way of problems?

4. A small portion of the passenger side quarter panel strip is broken off, at the end nearest the rear of the car, and the material that lines the wheel well is slightly damaged. Any source for a quarter panel out there (SWB, of course)?

5. Finally, anything else -- issues, problems, recalls -- I should know or keep and eye on?

Thanks in advance,

James

Most MB's have a Maintenance or Service Booklet with the car's docs. It tells you exactly what is needed for each Maintenance Schedule A, B, C, etc. If you don't have one check with the dealer or call 1-800-FOR MERCedes.
