Description of the problem	To whom it may concern. I have the mb c230 2006. I've been losing power while driving. While the car idles it's running as if it's missing like out of timing. I've been to the parts dept because i was told the vehicle was missing. I had the coils changed. Spark plugs changed, yet still the car has no power and when idling the engine runs so violent it's causing the belt to wear. So far i had to buy 5 belts and they won't last more than 4 days. This past week i was also told that the 4 magets would have to be changed. Well i had them changed and still i have a car that has no power. I was finally told by a md mechanic my problem with the car is there's a balance shaft that's inoperable. When i inquire about this item i was told that mercedes benz does not have this as a recall item when in fact this issue has been an issue since 2004. I would like to have any information in regards to repair. There is no way a customer of this auto maker should have to bear the burden of paying for an item when in fact it's been a problem with mercerdes benz from the start. *kb
