I heard water sound when I accelerate...

Hi everyone. I have a 2001 C320 and occasionally I heard water sound whenever I accelerate. The sound doesn't often can be heard and I search around the floor of my garage and no visible water spot (Leakage) can be found. Have anyone in here experienced that before? Thanks!

Check the drainage holes (possibly in your doors since you hear it). The water may collect because the holes are blocked with dirt.

sometimes I heard the same, I posted one time to ask what it was, but no luck.

I think it is the fuel in the tank (when the tank is almost full)

This may be compleatly unrealated... In my truck (Diamler Chrystler) when the coolent level is to low I will hear water/air in the heater core and supply pipes when I accelerate.

Water noise

I know this is a very old post to bring back. But tonight my c55 was making a weird water/ fluid moving sound from the dash area. Heard it 2 times while at a stop light. Then I pulled over shut the car down .. No noise for about 2 minutes then it made he sound as if it released a few gallons of water.

What the heck is this ???

Thanks
Myles
