Our 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG still seems pretty tight and rattle-free after 60,000 miles.

    That little climate control fan in my W140 costs only $350 to replace but that doesn't matter because you might be able to fix it for $4.99. Open up the dash where that fan is, here's a video

    It's real easy. Then use a can of compressed air to clean around that fan. It draws cabin air to the temperature sensor and can get gummed up with dust and dirt and make weird noises. I clean mine every couple of years and it runs great though mine is an older car where you could still kinda fix stuff by yourself.

    This car has been likely babied during most of it's life and has only averaged less than 7k miles per year. If a Honda Accord rattled after 9 years and was driven less than 7k a year, the owner would be enraged.

    I don't see how this is an accomplishment for a $180k Mercedes...
