| Description of the problem | We have a 2007 mercedes benz c230 sport. Shortly after purchasing this vehicle used with 32000 miles on it we started having balance shaft problems. Since then we have had the balance shaft sensor, and magnets replaces along with the crank case sensor. The vehicles check engine light is still coming on and we are now being told the balance shaft solenoids need to be replaced as well. |
