I'm glad there are so many Mercedes owners on this forum. I believe that this is one of the best cars in the world today. I can give you helpful advice. you should familiarize yourself with the services of different companies that will help you solve your problems quickly in an emergency. you should think about towing your car in advance. I advise you to familiarize yourself with the Calgary towing services - Superior Towing in more detail and it will become useful for you.

Mercedes-Benz are capable of lasting upwards of 250,000 miles with routine maintenance and daily care. Mercedes are known to last 13-17 years on average, so even though they're on the expensive side, they're still a great investment into the future

With the level of insecurity on our highways where are you needing above 140km/h. If you are in Lagos let us know so we see if ETO can fix it or you buy another transmission.

Please does anyone know how much I can budget for the transmission?

No need to lie to validate something. If in doubt, go try out pacing a 2005 Camry V6. I won’t bring in the SE variant or even the. 2007-date Camry models to this discuss.
2006 E350
2006 E320 CDI to the rescue. What say you?

Be calming down.

It's not always about HP. How th power is put down also matters.

A 2008 Honda city will beat the Merc in a 0 to 100 km/hr sprint.

Make una take am easy. We know say una like Benz pass una wives but some claims are downright silly.

Your shaft na your problem.

It's not a Camry or Corolla problem. It is a maintenance item. It is meant to be replaced when it gets worn. It wasn't designed to last forever. A genuine replacement sho.uld last donkey years and possibly get scrapped with the car.

Make una dey lie small small.

Skip the 06 MY and jump into the Facelift. Preferably 2008/9. The 06 E350 was plagued with SBC issue, balance shaft issue etc
The 06 E320 cdi was only plagued with SBC issue

From the information the flickering happen under loads when AC/ radio is ON, try check the voltage supplied from the alternator with a voltmeter or use scanner to check the voltage and short/open circuit.

When u have a good product and everyone swears by it . unfortunately bad people will try to cash in .......

Most of fake Mobil or engine oil are made in Nigeria. I don't think it is possible to import fake Mobil oil, unless it is coming from China..


For all your original Mobil 1 oil.... We at ur service.. We at Dru23 import them directly... No worries we are the number 1 seller on nairaland....

Oga they will tell you Mobil 1 but the truth is that 2012 car is 10yr old car and I will recommend you use high milage oil due to wears and tears in engine. You will need a higher oil with higher viscosity... I will recommend Mobil xhp if you will agree... Or use a semi synthetic oil with high milage

Don't mistake me for yourself @ bolded.
I drive a modest 2015 corolla LE,
And a host of pick up trucks that I own.
I said don't buy a LUXURY car older than 5 years,but I don't think you're capable enough to understand what that means.

I don't agree with him, but a 2015 Toyota is never in the lines of a luxury car.
He meant luxury cars like older range rovers, Mercs, BMW that were built for luxury only.
Tends to be problematic money pits.

Why his post come dey pain you in particular like this? Pretty much everyone on this thread is in the same boat, only question is how ancient.

You should save your pity for the ones driving 2005 Mercedes models but who spend all their time making their ancient vehicles seem like the spanking new EQS.
