TSB copies

I found a copy of the engine control module update and also saw one for the motor mounts but can"t seem to find it again. If someone could post it or a link to it that would be great! Thanks!

(1) Motor Mounts - E500 only. However, I had a slight ticking noise coming from the engine area and my dealer updated the mounts as a precaution. Actual noise was found to be the steerting rack mounting plate.

(2) Brake noise = P-B-42.46/27a, Hydraulic brake pump damper. Also, have them check the pump for leaks - https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...defective+seal

(3) Lack of acceleration (ALSO) intermittently hesitant at slow speeds (i.e.: parking lots - as if about to stall, hunts, loss of power) = P-B-07.00/28a, Engine Control Unit Software Update

FYI, other common problems:

(1) Steering wheel shimmy 50 mph plus = Balanced & rotated all four tires.
(2) Vehicle drifts right = Front & rear wheel alignment and, more importantly, left & right camber/caster kits (attached work order).
(3) Excessively loud cooling fan = Replaced fan assembly and blower fan. Still loud but not as often.
(4) Windshield wipers skip = Replaced defective wiper blades.
