Have a black 2010 C350 and just hit 199,000 miles; my dad was the original owner. I will say ours also had the seat rip a little after 100k miles but we fixed it locally and it has been fine ever since.
@@UrielArtsGarage the engine has been dead reliable, I can’t even remember the last time the check engine light came on. At around 160,000 miles, the transmission started to shift roughly from 4th to 5th gear, and same thing when downshifting. Sometimes are more rough than others, depending on where I’m at in the RPMs. Also I have the 7” COMAND screen and the pixels died on me but everything still works
@@MikeGates-oz2yw wow that's amazing! hoping to get similar mileage! I have the base comand screen which is better I supposed for longevity! wish you more miles!
I have a 08 C300 and I’ve done a lot of maintenance items on it since I got it in December. The interior door switches and A/C switches I replaced with button caps from the EBay really cheap fix. The headrest broke but I’m having them bonded together. The engine and transmission are solid though. I really like driving this C300.
got the same exact car, just 60k miles more lol keep making these videos bro, i come home from work inspired to see what else u be doing to this lil spaceship.
C200 kompressor owner here. Good car, but a few things I noticed are a strange burble under acceleration at about 2000rpm, only audible inside the cabin. no idea so any help would be good. Also the rear seat belt says a warning but no one in the back seat? Anyone have suggestions on what these 2 issues could be.
Check your transmission and engine mount! Check exhaust for rust, check for any lose parts! It’s hard to determine something unless you have more details about it! Though those are my assumptions! As for the seatbelt warning for rear, my car actually doesn’t come with one! So it’s cool to hear some models have sensor in the back!
@Uriel Art's Garage just an update. The burble has been diagnosed as a bad supercharger. Not sure what exactly at this point but it will cost me some coin. As for the seatbelt, it is a faulty sensor. Says someone is in the back seat even when they aren't. Tried a contact cleaner and still there so who knows.
@@lancegraham7722 misread, you have a kompressor which is a supercharger. Yes the 4 cylinder kompressor tends to be more unreliable than an NA V6! w203 c230 had problems as well! but I wish you the best! diy will definitely help you in the long run!
The m276 introduced direct injection which adds more complexity and whatnot, though i heard good stories about them especially on the fuel economy side, i would just make sure to do more research! Typically I’ve seen them with over 150k miles so there’s that.
Yes , Make sure that you have the maintenance records of the vehicle. If these are properly maintained they are one of the most if not the most reliable modern Mercedes
highest I got with hypermiling was 34mpg! However for the most part I get between 20-22mpg city and highway combined. I say it's a good trade off for a reliable engine.

How’s the c350 with 200k? Any serious issues? I plan on taking it locally!

What type of bond are you using for the headrest?
When you say headrest broke do you mean the airbags in them deployed?
Should be buying my first car soon. This has always been a targeted option. Great presentation and info.👍👍
Great vid, and thanks for sharing the maintenance you've done. I was considering one of these for a daily. What year is that W204, Uriel?
got the same exact car, just 60k miles more lol

Thanks! Definitely a great daily! Little bit here and there driving fast 😆
@@UrielArtsGarage no kidding coming from the c230K with 200hp to 270hp is a strong difference in a daily😂
@@soultribeatl6854 haha I have a c240 and its a hugggeee difference!
I totally agree. On-time maintenance comes first

@@UrielArtsGarage thankyou. Will have a look and see how we go. Appreciate your feedback
@@lancegraham7722 let me know how it goes!

Curbrashes not me doing the same 😅....does your right mirror go down when you put it in reverse?
I believe that’s a feature reserved for the memory seat option because I tried activating and it didn’t work
@Uriel Art's Garage ohhhh I see ya I have the memory seats that would make sense it's really helpful when parallel parking! Keep up the work bro!
Great car, I drive it for daily driving, looks cool drives cool
Are the 2012-2014 c350’s reliable. Thinking of buying one
The m276 introduced direct injection which adds more complexity and whatnot, though i heard good stories about them especially on the fuel economy side, i would just make sure to do more research! Typically I’ve seen them with over 150k miles so there’s that.

I got the dreaded Esl lock issue on mine so be wary of that one.
not looking forward to that one at 122k miles! I plan on doing a video for sure if that happens!
How’s the fuel consumption
highest I got with hypermiling was 34mpg! However for the most part I get between 20-22mpg city and highway combined. I say it's a good trade off for a reliable engine.
Is it available
Good job bro !
Thank you very much! More to come
Nice video!
😎😎
It’s called a seat cover
Have a chance to buy a 08 c350 sport worth it?
