Why does my car hesitate when I step on the gas??Chryslv - 2001 Mercedes Benz C240 - Transmissions & Drivetrains - 5/11/2012-
5/11/2012 JimmPossible Causes of Engine Hesitation or Stumble:
Dirty fuel injectors (cleaning the injectors often fixes this).
Bad MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor
Bad TPS (throttle position) sensor
Bad or dirty MAF (mass airflow) sensor
Low fuel pressure (leaky fuel pressure regulator or weak fuel pump)
Vacuum leaks (intake manifold, vacuum hoses, throttle body, EGR valve)
Bad gasoline (fuel contaminated with water or too much alcohol)
Sometimes, what feels like a hesitation is actually ignition misfire rather than lean misfire. The causes of ignition misfire may include:
Dirty or worn spark plugs
Bad plug wires
Weak ignition coil
Wet plug wires

When I turn left or right a noise come from front of the car in the driven traineddy martinez - 1998 Mercedes Benz ML320 - Transmissions & Drivetrains - 3/30/2012Answer-
3/16/2012 Spoon SportsWhat kind of noise? Scraping? Grinding? Rubbing? Whining?
3/17/2012 eddy martinezGrinding -
3/30/2012 Spoon SportsIt could be something as simple as a pad anti rattle shim that has become displaced or damaged by a stone etc.
Can you feel it through the steering? Are all engine mounts in good condition? It's not the engine moving around when cornering & touching something?
You don't have Conti tyres with feathered & cupped shoulder tread do you? They can cause worn bearing type noises & you can generally feel some grumbling through the steering.
or it could be a worn CV joint.
