Odd sounds in C300

I've had my loaner now for a month so I'm almost feeling like a W205 driver now, lol. But I've noticed an odd thing or two about the car.

The first noise sounds like it's coming from the dashboard area on the drivers side. It sounds like there is a small animal moving around inside there. I actually tried to check to make sure something wasn't living in there.

The second is sometimes the car runs rough like it's going to stall. Especially after a startup or stop/start startup. It almost reminds me of an old junker from the 80's where you weren't sure the engine would keep running long enough to get warmed up.

I wasn't sure if when or if I get to return the car if I should mention it to them.

That's Jimmy Hoffa's body. The mob has been moving it around for years.

I would keep silent.

Is it 2015 c300? What is the built month and year?

I had similar experience with my new 2015 c300. I purchased the car during July 2015 but the car was built jan 2015. They had to bring the car from another state. I purchased but returned it next day. It was like driving a old junker like u mentioned.

It is a 4/15 C300.

Thankfully it's a loaner but I'm starting to think I'll never get my car back from the dealer.
