Nice video! I bought a very low mileage ML 350 bluetech one year ago with only 58000 kilometers. I love the car, ride and overall quality. Still I have had issues: both knox sensors failed and check enginge light appeared, both replaced was around 2100 euros. Also rear parking sensors are not working, some harness issue in the rear that should be fixed. I have changed gearbox oil and engine oils. Hope that car will stay reliable, I have a familair mercedes service shop where they only charge 80euros/hour, and they know what they are doing. If you buy any old mercedes I would recommend finding that kind of service center!
Why hasn't anyone spoken about the electric powered steering beam that fails every now and then making it impossible to stair as it becomes stiff. It's mounted too low and comes in contact with water when you driver through ditches. I'd like to know if this was corrected in newer versions. I have the 2012 ml350.
The electric steering is a major concern for me, that’s the reason why i haven’t made a move to buy the W166 or higher models yet. I heard it is also expensive to replace. 😢
2nd owner bought at 77,000 miles. Timing chain tensioner needs to be replaced but car still runs great with a little rattle at start up. Love the car though.
Bought a used 2014 ml350d bluetec driven to 169,000km with no major issues other than fault rear parking sensors. Does anyone know the cause or fix? I recommend changing the oil yourself every 10,000km as Mercedes only changes every 25,000 when it is like black sludge even if you take your car for service each year they they will charge you for oils change but not change it if you covered less than 25k
