Mercedes E220D W213 Annoying Noise in cabin
Hi Everyone.
I have an issue that so far even the official MB service couldn't fix. There is a noise coming in direction of the windshield ventilation or somewhere behind the driver panel, can't be sure, but I think it's not coming from the engine since it's not audible outside.
I already tried removing the top cover of the front panel that sometimes makes noise by vibrating and hitting the plastic where it lays but that wasn't the issue. I also uploaded the video to give you a better idea.
I appreciate anything that comes to your mind and thank you in advance for taking your time reading this.
Have a great day! Cheers!

If I am listening for the correct noise, it almost sounds like gears/motor grinding.
Is it possible that this noise is coming from around the rear view mirror?
My '19 E450 wagon had a noise coming from the overhead console. It was more of a sound of plastic gears grinding (or not meshing properly). It would come and go, sometimes more intense, sometimes faint, sometimes silent. You could usually hear it when first getting in the car, after stopping the car, or if the Autostop kicked in and you were quietly sitting at a traffic light.
I just had my car serviced and asked them to check this. This was the diagnosis:
- ASPIRATOR MOTOR IN THE OVERHEAD CONTROL PANEL IS NOISY -> REPLACED OVERHEAD CONTROL PANEL.
For now, the noise has disappeared.
