Mercedes W211, 2003 model!

Hi! As you probably can see, I'm new to this site.

I've got an Mercedes Avantgarde, E220 CDI 2003 model.

I've got tiptronic on it, have gone around 150k or so kilometres (EU).

I've had this issue for a pretty long time now, and it's extremely annoying.

Problem is: When I drive (Mostly low gear and rpm), recently it comes a sound when you push the gas-pedal a little bit (very smooth) and it doesn't response very well, it shakes a little and makes a "BRR" sound. So you have to push the gas-pedal a little harder for it to raise over 2k rpm or so, so you can avoid the sound and buzzing.

Any suggestions on what they problem may be? I wan't to drive the car also in low rpm and slow sometimes, without having that annoying problem.

Please answer and come with suggestions, guys. May you have a great day as well, and thanks in advance!

Best regards,

Nicuu

Get Tranny Glycol test ASAP. But since you have driven it this way for a long time it may be to late for just a fluid flush...a new TCM may be on the menu.

Thanks for answer.

I went to the dealer for about 1 year ago or so, and he said that it had to be done (fluid flush), but if I drove with tiptronic (gears), the problem would likely solve as he had recommended that to others and it had worked.

For me it hasn't really helped. What will they do in Tranny glycol test?

And what's the regular prices on this? The Tranny Glycol test and fluid flush?
Eventually the price for TCM?

Thanks in advance.
