  Does the engine itself wobble. It is likely the engine has a misfire. If one of the cylinders isn't firing or isn't getting fuel the engine the engine may appear to run OK at higher speed but the misfire may be more noticeable at idle.
  Another possibility is that an engine mount or engine stabilizer is bad.

  I have a 2004 E320. My car starting shaking a bit when I would come to a stop. Took it to Mercedes and it turned out to be a broken engine mounting bracket. This was covered on my warranty. Cool!

  wAS IT COVERED BECAUSE YOU HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY OR JUST BECAUSE MERCEDES WAS WILLING TO REPLACE FREE OF CHARGE.
