What are Some Common Problems with Mercedes-Benz C 220?

Practical and stylish, your C 220 is quintessentially Mercedes-Benz. The luxury car you love wasn't without issue during its career in the mid-1990s, though. Here's a few trouble spots to look out for, and what to do if you run into them.

1. Failed Ignition Locks

If the ignition in your C 220 doesn't seem to work when you turn your key in it, then most likely, the lock and tumbler's worn out. This is a known issue for 1994, 1995, and 1996 models with 244,000 miles on average on their odometers these days. The whole ignition lock will have to be replaced.

2. Bad Shifters

If the shift lever in your C 220 transmission feels loose, and you hear a clang when changing gears, then most likely, its bushings have worn out, broken, and fallen out. This is a known issue for '94, '95, and '96 models with 250,000 miles or fewer on their odometers nowadays. The bushings need replacement.

3. Faulty HVAC

If the climate control system in your C 220 isn't heating or cooling right, then most likely, its air delivery and temp control flaps aren't working right -- the result of a leak in the climate control actuator's vacuum manifold. This is a known issue for models from between '94 and '96 with 206,000 miles or fewer on their odometers today. You'll have to replace the problematic parts. If you need help with anything, get in touch with the techs at a Mercedes-Benz service center.
