C450 Rattling noise
Hey guys,
Just picked up my 2016 C450 and i love it. One issue i am having is that sometimes i hear a slight rattling noise while driving. It is not consistent its on and off. Any advice? |
Front or back rattle?
|
Heard rattling in cabin too but realized it was the sunglasses in the overhead compartment. :D
|
It is in the front, kind of by the instrument cluster/dash. its not too loud but loud enough for me to notice and get annoyed haha.

It took me a while, but I found out my cupholders were making noises if I had drinks in them :crazy: It's probably those springy things that are loose.
|
I have had my car in the shop no less than 4 times for rattles. It's the worst part about this car...
|
decades upon decades of r&d and still can't get rid of the rattles . . . . .

Also why a C class isn't price like a S class. |

I have a rattle in the dashpad/instrument cluster area as well. Seems to be temperature related. When cold it will rattle relentlessly. As soon as the sun hits it on the way to the service department it stops. Also, if you press down on the pad when it's rattling it stops. I've had it in 3 times for service and they can't replicate/find the culprit. They've added much felt tape but every time the sun goes down, the rattle returns.

When i'm driving on rough roads there seems to be rattles all over the center speaker area. Holding the cover doesn't seem to help. It's hard to pinpoint exactly where it is. This seems to be the only negative for the C450.

My car is going back to the shop tomorrow for the Power Steering recall, a couple long-term rattles which have gotten worse, and to officially put 'wind noise over mirrors' on the record so I can get acoustic glass.
The rattles are killing my experience with this car.. |
Just got confirmation that this is the noise in my youtube video above.
TSB #LI03-10P060916 NHTSA ID #10058545 Date Announced: JULY 01 2015 Summary: XENTRY (DAIMLER): DUE TO UNFAVORABLE TOLERANCE OF PISTON WRIST PIN, RESULTING IN KNOCKING, CLATTERING/RATTLING NOISES, CAUSING AN ENLARGE END FLOAT CONNECTING ROD IN PISTON, FROM CRANK ASSEMBLY OF ENGINE WHEN COLD. |

I think thats normal. Its just the suspension groaning cuz our cars are still really new and underlubed. And the TSB is not for the 450 as you can see it is dated to July 2015, official release of C450 was End of september

honestly I really don't know why they keep this stupid sunglass compartment there.. would much rather have something integrated lower for a phone or just get rid of the damb thing.
My previous 2012 e350 had no storage for glasses, so rattles and all, I appreciate having somewhere to put my sunglasses in my c450. |
I am getting a slight rattle on the passenger side when going over uneven roads...haven't pinpointed the noise but its there. Car is 1 week old.
|
Take heart: the working of these components will likely sort out the sound. After a few months, mine is nearly silent.

C450 Rattling Noise
Just bought C450 AMG and loved the car except that annoying dashboard noise. It happens only on uneven road, in cooler temperatures, and slower speed. I am going to bring the car to the dealer for a checkup. If anyone owns the car and has this problem fixed, I will much appreciate if he or she can share the fixes. Thanks in advance.

Mine was noisy at first but after 1000 miles most of the interior rattleseems to be gone all on its own.. I think just time and various temperature outside may have gotten all the parts to settle..
