Mercedes Benz common issues

Engine Mounts Failure. Engine mounts are the components that secure a vehicle’s engine to the chassis. This can create vibration throughout your vehicle especially when stopped at a light. Also has the tendency to give a thump sound when engaging in drive or reverse.

One common issue with these symptoms which at times makes the check engine light flash on and off is a cylinder misfire. Faulty spark plug and or ignition coil is the most seen issue. An evap leak in your air injection is another issue. We can diagnose and fix your vehicle back to life.

Models equipped with Air Suspension at one point will give an issue but no worries we have all the equipment to repair at a fraction of the cost from your local dealership. An obvious sign of problems with your air suspension is finding your vehicle lower than normal on one side or the whole vehicle dropped to the ground. A suspension fault will also show on your Mercedes benz dashboard.

Most common issue here is an oil leak. Two components known to have issues are the valve cover gaskets and timing cover gasket. Both of these with age tend to leak due to the rubber seal getting worn.

Coolant leaks are another common issue we’ve found either from a faulty radiator hose or a failure in your water pump seal.

Pre Purchase inspection

We understand the need to be  wise in today’s economy and get the most you can on your investment.. The best solution for your budget is often buying a used vehicle. One of the downsides to buying a used car is not knowing the current condition mechanically of the vehicle. Many dealerships provide services like Carfax and other used-vehicle reports to inform you. Pre-purchase inspections will help you avoid getting into a vehicle with many repairs already needed which were not in your purchase budget. Knowing this before can help in multiple ways, stay away from that vehicle or if inspection is not a deal breaker use it as a negotiation point to lower the price of purchase. Our inspection checks if all the parts and critical driving systems are in good condition? How much life is left on the belts, hoses, and other key engine parts or fluids? At Advanced Auto Diagnostics, we want you to be safe in any vehicle you drive. Let an expertly trained, experienced, ASE-certified technician conduct a pre-purchase inspection of the vehicle you are considering to purchase.

A pre-purchase inspection is highly recommended if you are buying a vehicle without a warranty. You are assuming all the risk after purchase, so an inspection only makes financial sense. There is no industry standard for these inspections, but Advanced Auto Diagnostics will provide you with a comprehensive review of your prospective vehicle.

Spotting the problems before you purchase the vehicle can save you a lot of money. You can use any problems you find to negotiate a better price for the vehicle, and if they’re too costly or make the vehicle unsafe, you can avoid buying it altogether and find something safer for you and your family.

I am 55 years old and not a fan of the “online” world but I felt compelled to put a review for these guys. I must thank David and the staff behind him for their honesty and integrity. They saved me around $3,000 in unnecessary repairs that were suggested by my dealer!!! I ran these guys through 2 honesty tests and they passed with flying colors. Good people still exist !!!!
