Concern on my C55 idle
So I turned on my car today and it has ran smooth RPM but the car is shaking a little bit. The lights inside have a very small flicker to them.
Anyone have this problem? Could it be my motor mounts? I have 53645 miles on it.

I will take it around the black to see if there is any performance issues.
I just put in a optima red top not to long ago. I dont think the battery dieing would shake the car.

Funny, I just had the same issue after an autocross event. I did about 20 practice laps with a lot of WOT, everything was fine while running. Then I let the car cool down and restarted and got the rough idle and no codes. I figure maybe some dirt got in the injector.

Sounds to me like your having a misfire. Possibly in one of the cylinders. Is your check engine light on? Because I have 84k miles and still have my motor mounts, which are in great condition.

I think we can use e55 motor mounts. I remember 320 dreamer was talking about taking bad motor mounts and filling them with urethane. Check out the link: https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...ts-needed.html
