My car engine is making a rattling/ sparking noise like ke ke ke ke when accelerating sometimes when climbing a hill or when you suddenly press the acceleration to increase speed .

I have changed the plugs, what can be the issue. I use a C300 MB 2010

Bros, I am currently experiencing this same issue with my 2010 W204. But if I may ask, can you replicate this ‘kekekeke’ sound when the car isn’t in motion? I mean if you rev the engine when the car is in neutral.

I have sent you an email

I need help to choose btw ml350 2015 and gl450 2013/2015.
The only reason I am interested in the gl450 is because it's a 7 seater otherwise I have always wanted the ml.
Please is there any other advantage the gl has over the ml?

GL with plenty wahala, why do you need a 7 seater? How many kids in the family?

One of my customer just notified me that Liqui Moly 5w40 Molygen he got from me in June has knocked his W203 C230engine. I am in shock but there are lessons to learn from this which is why i decided to share here.

Once you tell me you have been using 20w50 for more than 6 months i dont sell Liqui Moly to you because i know it will smoke and might damage the engine.But this customer said he has been using Mobil 1 5w30..the imported one. So i said okay no issues same synthethic blend(i was wrong)


Una go dey sell oil up and down without cinsidering the age and model of a car

Why sell a synthetic oil to a 2005 car... That car is 17yr old and there must be wears and tears. Synthetic oil is meant for cars less than 5 years

Sell the client High Milage oil... It takes care of old engines

Check the pulley
Check the rotors
Check the compressor
Check the power steering pump
Check the plastics covering of fan and know if the fan isn't touching it

Then disconnect the serpentine belt and hear the engine sound... Then you will trace it

It's a small issue

Small issue!
I suspect engine pre-ignition or knock
I might be wrong though.

he has to remove all the serpentine belt and start the car and listen to the sound.... If the sound is still there that is a preknock or valve or can be timing chain slacked or anything

First he has to remove the serpentine belt and start the engine and listen to the sound

It isn't a big Deal like that....

What if the issue (noise) cannot be replicated if you rev the car when it is not in motion? I have similar issue and I only experience the sound as described by op ONLY when the car is in motion.

Oga this isn't a matter of online argument sir

I have experienced it... It was one of my pulleys the one that is in engine


Remove the serpentine belt and hear the should of engine first and if the sound isn't coming even if you rev it... Then rule out engine

Then focus on pulleys and alternators with steering pump


It is a practical thing..

Bros this your doctrine of Synthetic for 5 year old cars can you back it with empirical research evidence or pronouncements or its just something you concocted? You have been saying this thing and no one wants to answer you ..........please prove to me we learn everyday.
