2003 Mercedes-Benz A-Class avantgarde review from UK and Ireland
"Great, but worrying"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New Gearbox
New Instrument cluster
New Radio
New front suspension bushes, front all under warranty
Took in under for rattle at 2000 rpm not
solved, when car out of warranty I traced it to heat shields which is now sorted.
General comments?
I enjoy the whole experience of driving, so does my wife; we have wide wheels so cornering good.
Engine power very good perfectly happy with car.
Will use mercedes technician at local garage as
dealer servicing very pricey for what you get.
