2014 C300 Engine mounts
Hello Guys,
I just bought a CPO 2014 c300 4matic with 24k miles on it. everything is running well. I noticed that when the car is idle at park and i hit the accelerator to 3000 RPM, then remove my foot from the accelerator, i feel a small vibration. also when putting the car on drive while holding break and accelerating, then engine rises a little bit from driver side. i dont feel any vibration when the car is just at parked or while driving or shifting gear.
Took it to dealer, he said they lifted the car and check all engine mounts plus transmission mounts, not issue. he said because the car hydroponic mounts it is normal to feel it in that specific case. He offered to test a couple vehicles same model same year same mileage, and indeed when idle and just hitting the accelerator then releasing i tiny vibration is felt. i am trying to believe them!!!
Can anyone comment on this please?
Thanks!

Mercedes service dept makes good money on warranty repairs.
if the engine mounts were bad they would love to replace them and anything else they find.
what is meant is the motor mounts are internally liquid filled, very common on other car makers.

Ok, great! makes sense especially after letting me test cars like mine showing the same results. You seem to know your game man! One last question for you then, bonus question!
when the Car Fan is on, i feel a small tiny vibration when my foot is on the break, not felt at the accelerator. nothing loud , just a small vibration, and it goes away when i turn the fan off. any what is it? or is just the air fan been placed close to break? or this should not happen?
Thanks a lot!

sound waves easily transmit in reverse order.
gas pedal is just mounted to fire wall that's it.
it's a fly by wire control system.
good luck.
