1. The wipers come on at random times and don't always shut off when switched off.
2. The original FM radio has not worked in a while. AM radio works fine. Casette deck works fine. The volume knob doesn't work. System puts out a squeal from the rear right speaker most of the time. (I really want to replace the whole radio).
3. Driver side key lock does not lock/unlock with key. I have to access van through passenger side to unlock doors. There's a rattling sound from driver side door lock at the 15 mph auto-lock-speed.
4. Locks have a mind of their own. I use the key to unlock the doors, then they all lock again. Picture me standing outside the van saying, "Unlock!" and the van says, "No, lock!", repeat 5 times. I have to hold the key in the unlock position while openning the door (they will auto lock again once I release the key). Once I reach in and hit the switch to unlock everything, they will stay unlocked. Driver side sliding door lock does not respond to auto-lock - requires a reach inside to manually flip it up.
Thanks in advance!
SOURCE: power door locks do not work
the reason the locks dont work more then likely there is a code stored in the bcm for a lock output circuit normally caused by one if not both of the sliding door acuators. even if you change the acuators the locks still will not work until the code is cleared.
SOURCE: loud squealing noise
Probably a belt getting loose or worn. If alternator has a separate one than the rest, try just tightening it up. My guess is that it's probably all one belt with a tensioner pulley, which means you can't tighten, (spring tension already applied by tensioner) you have to change the belt, to get rid of noise, and if noise comes back in short time, think about changing tensioner.

Did you buy factory pads or get cheap aftermarket pads? If aftermarket did you get the ceramic? The cheap aftermarket ones tend to squeal pretty bad. Like the last comment on here, you should have your rotors turned whenever you change the pads.

the 300 e was one of the cheaper made mercedes. worth maybe 1000.00 tops because of the way they are made. i know i had one and they arent worth owning . even when i did had repair work done on mine the mechanics told me not to spend too much money on it that i would be wasting it
