While driving my c-240 between 30 & 60 mph i can feel a vibration on the shift lever & the steering wheel & if put my hand on top of the instrument panel. you can sense the vibration around you. it seems to come from the power train, via drive shaft, trans. or differential, the dealer replaced & balanced all four tires, and it i thuoght it was corrected but the problem still persits sometimes it is more noticible than others, i took the car back to the dealer to have it checked out but on a test drive the service man said he can't feel anything wrong & that it might be me....
