Good day guys, which one is more reliable,
a 2009/2010 ml350 or 2012 ml350? I'm aware the designs are different. Please help make an informed decision. Thanks

I am not in your head and not a mind reader. The pump and rack of the 166 is 700k and if you wade in water during raining season,there is a 90% chance it will be damaged. Hope it's something like that you want to hear? Wait for the engine and transmission part it is coming.

The vehicle has been at a workshop in Umuahia for over 6 months and I can’t drive the car back to Lagos for proper diagnosis
The guy has been doing one thing or the other since then but last week, he now called me to tell me that he has been able to scan the vehicle and we need to change the ISM MODULE TRANSMISSION CONTROL FOR ML 350.
I am just very tired and frustrated with the whole thing,for a vehicle I have barely used since two years ago It was sent from Canada

Quite common with those cars.

To be honest I think it's not even guaranteed that your Tokunbo Benz won't come with some issues let alone Naija use

I drive Mercedes E320, w211. My problem is that the car keep smoking and shorting oil. I bought the car as Nigeria used, my first mechanic service the car with mobil xhp 1000. And since then I started noticing oil shortage and smoke coming out from the exhaust. The car sound smooth and run very well, my mechanic recommend I changed the engine, not confused I took the car to one of the best mechanic workshop in Abuja (alimoto) for scanning and the results show that their is no problem with the engine of the car, although I have changed the oil back from mobil xhp 1000 to mobil 5 w20 semi synthetic my only problem is just the smoke that comes out from the exhaust. What could be the reason why car emits white smoke but engine sound well and move very well.

I drive one too w211 05 , and I use the Mobil 1000 xhp 8 liters and no issue of smoke. the car has no problem at all but sbc comes few times is my only worries, have you ever got brake warning on ur dash sometimes? and if you have bought the serpentine belt recently what's the number? I saw 5pk 2418 on the faded on in it but I want to be sure

I have not change my serpentine belt, but I experience issue of SBC brake warning light, most expecially when I am on long journey travel and I hit bad spot where I need to apply brake so often then boom the brake warning light come up, this will appear on the dash board till when the vehicle cool down. Although I am preparing to change the SBC anytime soon.

the brake warning only came when I slow down like 2-5 mph so it's easier stopping it that way. cos I can't imagine going 30 to 50 mph and the warning came on, na big trouble b dat. but whenever it happens I just turn of and on the engine until it goes away. Have you ever experienced it when doing over 20mph and if so how did you stop the car

As I said earlier I have not experience it when doing normal city ride within Abuja, I only experience it when on a longer journey drive let say for four hours when I am on speed of above 80 mph. Apart from SBC problem the car is very solid and consume less fuel.
