    I own a 2019 GLC 300 with AMG package and it has been the best SUV. I noticed the skipping tire thing but just when you are in need of new front tires other than that. All is good it’s a great SUV.

    Vibration while breaking is a sign of warped disc brakes- easy fix.
    Ask if the crank case ventilation hose has been changed. It’s a big expensive job $2K worth

      Hey there, I think AWD is the way to go but then we do get a lot of snow where I live.
      If you've been ok with two wheel drive all year round where you live, there's not much reason to switch 👌

    Nice video, I have a glc from 2020, what’s the solution for the squeaky brakes? Another question, is there a tendency for transmission problems, because when I shift from d to r or whatever it makes some noise. Appreciate your answer

      Te recomendó que la cambias por una AWD por que las de tracción delantera tienen problemas con la transmisión
      Las GLC-330 AWD son buenos autos …

      If you live in a wet climate, they will squeak a bit, but once you drive around and brake to wipe off residue/moisture it should go away. I have an 18’ GLC and the rear brakes would squeak first time backing out in the morning (carport, no garage) and after that the brakes wouldn’t squeak at all. I recently got my rear pads replaced with nice aftermarket ceramic and now I have absolutely zero squeaking, even when I back out in mornings. So maybe you need to new brake pads.

    I have noise on the rear brakes and the funny thing they are new Brembo rotors and German brake pads but everything else works perfectly I guess I found a good one with 35K 2018 4Matic love this thing I’m sure people will say go Japanese but at the end they all are machines and they will fail as well but the thrill from Mercedes-Benz can’t be compared!!! I’ll take care of this GLC for years to come the best I can I’m comfortable to maintain it I’m betting in this brand cause love the driving experience!!! I just don’t want a Lexus or Infiniti I just can’t get over the fact they are Toyota and Nissan and also let’s throw Honda in the mix how can I feel luxurious when I know under that badge that’s what exactly is!!! I just can’t!!

      AGREED! I can't stand the look of the Lexus and it's about the same price of a RAV4 so not even sure what's the difference besides the ugly design of the supposed luxury vehicle, Lexus. Don't know people's obsession with Honda, and can't get pass Nissan/iNFINITI. Acura always makes me wonder why would I pay $50k for this again, just not entirely impressed with it. Went back and forth on the BMW X3 and the MB GLC 4Matic and you can imagine who won out. Lol

      Ya, love my GLC, feels soo soft and have a good feel. Like to spend time in the car. 400 mile journey is a piece of car. The car wants to be driven. I had the craving noise when doing full steering turn, but it’s gone after wheel alignment. Will check if it returns in winter

      I test drove a Lexus and it just did not feel like a luxury car, but more like a Toyota. You might as well get Rav4/Highlander and save $20,000.

      @@MarkSmith455 well if you don’t mind paying $20k more for a rebranded Highlander, then go for it. Driving an IS is no different than driving a Corolla with a bigger engine. That is just the reality. Besides, other than the L logo at front of the car, the other parts in the car has Toyota brand in them.
