This makes me wonder whether the camshaft adjuster is more related to the camshaft solenoid that the dealership initially said.Ĭan anyone offer any information here? Does anyone know whether the recalled camshaft solenoid would be related to the faulty camshaft adjuster? The repair shop we're getting the quote from still have the car and contacted the Mercedes dealership to get more information about the recall. It seems strange that the car took such an extreme turn for the worst immediately after getting it back. For the past 6 months, the car has done the same thing - make a loud rattling sound for less than 5 seconds when started but that was all (drove normally at all other times). This rattling sound is a completely different one that the original. It also started making a rattling sound when being driven. Does anyone know where these would be related?Īnother strange thing - Immediately after got the car back from the service and inspection the car started sort of shaking and knocking after being started up. They've had the car all week and seem to believe that the Mercedes dealership is wrong about the recalled camshaft solenoid and adjuster being unrelated.

The camshaft solenoid was replaced and the dealership determined that the rattling sound was a faulty camshaft adjuster that would take about $3,931 to replace. ![]() She took it in for the annual service and, upon arriving, found out their was a recall of the camshaft solenoid. Does anyone have any experience with faulty camshaft adjusters?
