Vibration issue
Hi everyone,
My name is Scott, and I have a 2013 C300 4matic Luxury that I'm having an issue with. While I'm driving in just about every gear except first, when the engine is around 1800-2000 rpm, I get a vibration that seems to come from the rear. Mainly, while I'm trying to keep a certain speed or starting up a hill. If I give it enough gas like I'm trying to pass someone, it don't do it. Does anyone have an idea as to what may be wrong? Thanks in advance!

Does your RPM gauge visibly shudder/fluctuate when the vibration occurs? I had the issue and I tried new spark plugs, air filters, fuel cleaners, etc. but nothing helped until I came across someone else with the same issue who fixed it by replacing the transmission fluid. I serviced my transmission fluid and this resolved my issue. No vibrations for 3+ years now.
