I just had two motor mounts replaces last week. they will leak in most cases when they are bad. I didnt even know they had stuff in them to leak. my old motor mounts looked kinda burnt with a brownish tint to them even though that are a tan kind of color. the vib is a deff symptom of bad motor mount. If you see any leaking in the area or say on your steering column (thats where mine was going.... bad motor mounts.

I haven't so far. It might be worth it to try the CLK55 forum. The reason I say this is that they've been out longer than the C55s been and it's possible some of them are starting to see this problem creep up.
