| | Name, Location: | cfchooi, Klang, Malaysia | | Vehicle: | Mercedes Benz E260 | | Year: | 1991 | | Modification: | Nil | | General comments: | knocking sound when going over a rough patch of road, attributed by my mechanic to require a steering box change (and which is costly!) Your advice please.
Are there available different shock absorbers for comfortable, firm and hard rides?
Car does not climb well.
Fuel consumption averages 9 km/litre in mixed city/touring drives, and 10.5 on long distance touring. Are these normal? | | What things have gone wrong with the car: | Valve-stem oil seals hardened, changed.
Power relay erratic causing engine cutting out anytime, changed and no problem thereafter.
Car 'jerks' when auto-changing from normal start-up running to next gear. Gearbox valve body has been serviced to no avail. | | Previous car: | E240 | |
