Mercedes-Benz C240 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Mercedes-Benz C240 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • Squeaky brake pad on Mercedes C240

    Try beveling them again and see if that makes a difference. That usually fixes the problem, but if it doesn't work consult a brake specialist and perhaps try another brand of pad.

  • Which small car to buy

    LIKE you, I prefer rear-wheel-drive cars for the way they drive and feel on the road. I'm also in favour of buying used BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes because you get to drive a better car than you might otherwise be able to afford, but they can be expensive to service and repair. For that reason I am loathe to recommend them. But I also agree that some of the cars coming from Japan look good, and I particularly like the new Lancer. I wouldn't be concerned about front-wheel drive at all, there's nothing wrong with the way they drive, handle, steer or brake.
