165,000 Mile Report

We bought this ML320 CDI used 7 years ago, and it has proven to be one of the better cars we've ever owned, especially over 80,000 miles of ownership. Fuel economy and range I calculate manually by always filling the tank and recording the miles. I've used fueleconomy.gov to track my mileage which averages 26.2MPG, with as much as 29, when I'm not driving 80MPH. We've used this vehicle to make multiple highway trips to and from MN from AZ and CA annually. An excellent highway cruiser, we've been 700+ miles between stops. The torque, power, drivability and fuel economy of this powertrain is amazing. I do much of my own servicing, including the oil cooler seal repair as well as regular transmission services too! Much of the engine oil leakage issues on these earlier OM642s comes from the intake seal on the turbo. Properly cared for, which isn't much, they don't leak. We did upgrade the suspension to bilstien B6s which stiffened the ride a bit, but has proven to be a huge improvement in handling over the OEM shocks and struts. The interior is nearly indestructible, no glitchy button or nob fails, seats still look new and clean up nicely after even the most abusive use. Fit and finish have remained tight, no funky rattles or squeaks as it has aged. The seats are amazingly comfortable over extreme distances as well, and the HVAC keeps the cabin very comfortable at any outside temperature. The 4-Matic has been flawless, and the mechanical reliability the same, proper servicing helps make that happen! My only disappointment comes from the way the MLs consume tires. I run Continental CrossContact LX20s that are lucky to go 30k miles. Rotation is a must or 30k number would be greatly reduced. They always wear nicely, but quickly in my opinion. According to my favorite shop, this is an ML issue across the line. I'd buy the 2007 ML320 CDI again without a second thought! Upgrade coming soon, 2016 GL350 BlueTec!

Loving My "New to Me" ML 350!!

This is my 1st Mercedes and I am, so far, more than happy with my choice. I traded in my '07 Chevy Tahoe as it was nearing its Warranty end and I could hear all the clunks and bumps starting to happen. I purchased this one with 31K miles and a great warranty. The difference is amazing! I LOVE the way this vehicle looks and feels when driving. The interior feels very roomy and comfy. I'm still getting used to all the bells and whistles and how to navigate them. My only complaints are: the 6 disc CD changer~seems kinda slow and chunky and no iPod integration. Also, I have to purchase a bluetooth module to enable my handsfree option.

Just purchased 2007 ML350,Love the style & performance. Had to get used to gear shift in the column. Having a problem w/engine light going on & off. My diagnosis, is constant adjusting of timing gear. I don't know how long before the gear socket wears out. Thus needing a new timing chain, etc. The warranty company wants me to pay to have engine stripped to see if work is under warranty? Still Fighting!!!!!

At 60K miles, tranmission failed. Cost to repair - $7 thousand dollars. Mechanic (other than dealership) opined that he did not know why MB had not recalled them. He never drives a MB made after 2004. A total piece of junk that has put me back finacially several yrs.

2007 ML500

Purchase based on one criteria: I'm 6'5" and fit comfortably. With the seat all the way back, I can barely reach the gas. My previous vehicles were Suburbans/Denalis but GM lowered to roof line so my line of sight was the sun visor! ML500 exceeds my expectations. I was concerned about comments re: navigation; it has some Teutonic quirks, kind of like a Siemens cell phone I had, but it's great and I like that it recalculates the route when you choose to deviate rather than chastise you to turn around, like some systems do. If BMW hadn't reduced driver's cabin space length in '07 for the sake of the ridiculously little 3rd row seats, probably would have gone with X5, but I couldn't be happier.
