A new model is introduced to the lineup of midsize Mercedes: the 400E. It offers V8 power, a first in this line of cars, and comes standard with an automatic transmission. Dual airbags are now standard on these pricey sedans, as are neat features like traction control, a five-speed automatic transmission, heated front seats, double paned side-windows, and a self-leveling system.

Phantom ASR Issues

1992 Mercedes-Benz 400-Class 400SE 4dr Sedan
I've had 6 different Mercedes cars including new, this is my first "S" Class. I've been chasing a phantom ASR issue with this car since day one. Very high service costs, even at an independent and brutally bad gas mileage (<12) make this car better suited for the demo derby.

1992 Mercedes-Benz 400-Class 400E 4dr Sedan
I bought this car with 77K miles on it
after my 1986 300E was hit from behind
at 45 MPH by a Ford Explorer ( lady
picking up toy on passenger side floor
for child in car seat) The 300 folded
nicely and after a year of PT I bought
the 400. I have very much enjoyed the
car. The only issues that really was
bad is the wiring harness on the engine
was a little to … "enviromentally
friendly" and literally started
breaking down in operation. It was a 1K
replacement with replacement and the
90K mile service. Make sure this was
already done if you buy one - or ask
for a discount because it NEEDS to be
done now!
