I dont know if im under the right topic forum, but i have a couple problems with my 2002 CLP i was hoping to get some input for. First, with about 13,450 miles on my car, my springs sound like they are freaking crying whenver i go over a speed bump. Maybe they are supposed to do this, but i havent noticed it until lately and it seems pretty loud. Next my SRS light has switched on when i was just normally driving and hasnt gone off! And finally, when i start my car, it sometimes takes up to four "cranks" (i dont know what the real name of it is) before my car finally catches and the engine starts. Yes i do take care of my car and change my oil on time and all of that, are any of these problems really serious? (i plan to talk to the dealer for my 15K service)
Thanks for any input

 

Doesn't sound too good...your best bet would be to go to the dealer and complain, and about the squeeking...you might have to replace the shocks, not sure, anybody else have any idea?

 

SRS airbag light can be reset, then they will order a part for you to keep it from coming on again.

Get'em to check yo suspension.

Also, as far as starting the car up, take it to an auto shop and get them to test your battery, sounds like a weak battery.

 

sabasCL, I had the same problem where something would be squeaking pretty loud in the back whenever I went over bumps. It turned out that I just needed to grease the bushing for the rear sway bar.

 

u know what ..my cls almost comes to a full stop when run over the ramp or bump..even my jeep does...as that will not damaged to the car or shocks.. the engines sounds is pretty normal..

 

Holy crap!!! You already have 13,000 miles on your '02!!!??? I have 1645...

 

i think your springs were poorly installed, that's why they are making such loud squeaking noises. i mean they do make noises, but not the point where i would describe them as they are "crying"

 

whoops, im sorry, i ment to say 2001 , i guess i just wasnt thinking, but yeah i guess it could be my new sway bars i got installed?? but it seems to be comming from the front and rear
