I know nothing about Mercedes-Benz cars except they're supposed to be well built, extremely reliable, and trouble free. 2002 - 2006 or so are the riskiest years for any used Mercedes product. Just absolutely horrendous quality that Mercedes is only now starting to recover from. Mercedes during that time had more lemon law buybacks than every other luxury car ... Read More...

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Maintenance and Repair

Re: '03 E320 Wagon - a Keeper? [contrarianjim]

Written by: greasykid1 on Feb 29, 2008 00:32 PM

MB's in general are not reflective of the problems that occur on many of the 2003-4 E class. This was a new model and it was not sorted out ---particularly the electronics. That is one reason I bought a preowned 2005 E320 CDI. Have been driving MB's since 1971 and now own #'s 19 & 20. My wife has a 2007 SLK350. I state all this as my present cars and the 18 before have never ... Read More...

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Warranties

Mercedes Extended Warranty

Written by: burosky on Feb 25, 2008 03:38 AM

Just bought a used 2006 E350 CPO from an authorized dealer. I was offered the extended warranty that would extend the CPO warranty by 2 years. I was told as long as the warranty was not used I can get a full refund (not a pro-rated refund) minus a $25 processing fee at any time even after the extended warranty runs out. Has anyone any info on this? Read More...

My Worst Nightmare With The E Class E280

Written by: jessys on Dec 06, 2007 09:44 PM

I am almost 50 and have driven numerous cars in my life. From American cars to Japanese cars to European cars. My previous car was a 2002 BMW 525i sedan. And, last year I purchased a new 2006 E280 GAS w/auto trans. SInce the beginning, it has never been satisfactory for me. It went in and out of the service garage. First, a bearing was changed after doing only 500 kilometers. ... Read More...

2003 Infiniti M45 vs 2002 Mercedes-Benz E430

Re: Need help choosing between 2003 M45 and 2002 Mercedes E430 [mrglassjaw]

why don't you look at the new M45, I'm not sure you can get any used M45 for $17k but it is a much better car than the 2003 M45. You can't compare them in terms of performance, I own both the 2006 M45 and the 2008 E350, M is a sports car and E is a comfort car, you gotta choose what you want. Read More...

My Mercedes 2004 E500 4matic self destructs...

Written by: gotripped on Sep 16, 2007 11:50 AM

I got cheated by Mercedes, as my E500 2004 developed rust on the undercarraige to a large degree, so much so that the company sent a rep (thief) out to void my warranty. They really owe me about 30 thousand dollars, but now the car is worthless because they voided the warranty. It is so rusted the shocks collapsed and it needs new springs (2000 dollars). This company ... Read More...

My 2004 Mercedes E Class self destructs

Written by: gotripped on Sep 16, 2007 11:32 AM

My 2004 Mercedes E 500 4 matic developed a great deal of rust all through the undercarraige for no apparent reason. Yes I live in Michigan, but I never had a car do what this one did. Mercedes had a rep (thief) look at the car and they voided the warranty. This company is so crooked is not even funny. I am a very succesful physician and I don't abuse my cars. They owe me at ...

I have a 2006 A6 4.2, and it's an awesome car. Audi's V8 is such a sweet engine. It's got amazing purr to it that makes me actually want to turn the radio off and hear the engine as I run thru the gears. I've been in a lot of high end BMW's and 400 plus HP AMG Mercedes', and none of them are as satisfying as sitting behind the wheel of a V8 Audi. At least not for me. There's more ... Read More...

Powerbenz, you are the man I want to talk to. I have a 2006 E class. I personally agree with you about the classiness and looks of the E and yet I wish it had a little more soul in the handling department. How about a comparo more in depth. Is your 545 a sprt? Thanks Read More...

Re: E350 lease. Did I do good/bad? [mrp]

Written by: gs6mb on Mar 01, 2007 01:15 PM

If you're happy with the car, you got a good deal. I just purchased a 2002 E430 4matic special edition (whatever that means) if anyone knows, I'd love to hear what it is. I think it might mean the interior wood or something is a different color. It has a sunroof, cd player, teleaid, built-in phone (that was not there), heated seats, mirrors that move when you put the ... Read More...
