Any one else have a whine in ML350 4MATIC
Here is the you tube video of me driving it. You can hear it plainly. I have been told by MBUSA and my dealer that it is operating as designed.

Mine sounds smooth. Yours sounds like maybe a belt is bad, or a bearing on one of the pulleys the belt pushes. It ain't right!
Suggest you find an independent MB mechanic in your area (an easy online search, and look for good reviews). Have them give it a listen.
Ps. You live in a nice neighborhood!

I wonder if this noise was present when the climate control was engaged as well as when it was completely off. I'm trying to pinpoint a noise my ML350 is making as well; the noise I'm dealing with is signifcantly muted after turning the climate control off.
Could the tensioner pulley and the climate control/AC have any connection whatsoever?
Thanks for the assistance!

The noise is very aggravating and is very audible at idle and low RPMs. It seems to be worse in damp/humid conditions, ie. leaving the house very early in the morning....not necessarily extraordinarily hot conditions as one would expect given that it's climate control related.
Thanks again!
