c32 amg steering wheel vibration/ on idle at startup
vibration at idle in steering wheel. only on startup , and only when car is in Drive.

Does not happen in neutral and park.

Also flex discs were replaced and trans mount is good.


Was thinking this might be an engine mount problem? Although they were replaced under warranty a month before I bought the car.

Any ideas?

How many miles do you have on it? Could be the spark plugs or wires...

I saw in your other post you have around 105k miles. May be time for new spark plugs and wires...I did mine at around the same time

My steering wheel vibrated a lot when the motor mounts were bad... Check, and see if they have leaked out.
