#272 of 286 Y2K E320 by elias May 01, 2006 (5:47 am)
our data with Y2K E320 4matic wagon is consistent with other postings indicating that was a buggy year for E320. we never had motor mount or rust problems. we owned it for about 5 years. problems we did have with the car are too numerous to list. it did become more reliable after its first year - like the "bathtub curve" of reliability for extremely complex systems such as commercial aircraft! i'll never expect reliability out of a mercedes, but i think the features/ride/comfort/safety are so incredible that i would consider another Benz purchase - diesel for sure!

we just purchased an E320 4MATIC! While we are still learning how to operate everything my wife noticed there is CARPET between the threshold and the door. We can't keep it clean! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to cover or clean this area?
#274 of 286 E500 electric locks by rktek Jul 25, 2006 (3:52 pm)
I have an 03 E500. Has anyone had a problem with the electric door locks? The drivers side lock bounces up and down when the key is pressed. Sometimes the catch does not reset it's self. I cannot figure out how to remove the interior panel to see if something has become disengaged. any advice other than go to a dealer. Thanks

Replying to: gtr3 (Jan 01, 2006 3:23 pm) I just purchased a wagon and my dealer claims that this adjustment cannot be made. Could you let me know where and which service person you dealt with? Thanks

#277 of 286 E500 Coasting Issue by kevfirst Mar 02, 2007 (1:35 pm)
I find that my E500 (2004 wagon) doesn't want to coast; I have to "drive" it forward, even down steep gradients. As soon as I lift my foot off the gas, it slows right down - as if it was changing down gears. I've checked that it's not locked into a low range (cleared by holding the shift lever to the right for a couple of seconds). But it feels like the car is down-shifting to avoid free-wheeling. Is this a feature of the design or might there be a problem with my particular model? Maybe I've missed something obvious. Help!
#278 of 286 E-350 4-Matic Wagon by rockypaul Jan 18, 2008 (9:30 am)
Ordered the 2007 model and have now had it for a year and 4 months.   Has been a joy in all respects.   Have not posted of late and returned to find Edmunds format a pleasant upgrading.   Just checking in.
#279 of 286 1996 E320 by sseell2 Jan 22, 2008 (8:17 pm)
My grandmother is offering to 'sell' me her 1996 Mercedes E320 with only 15,000 miles (she can no longer drive). I am a Toyota Camry/Honda Odyssey owner and have never considered a Mercedes until now. The E320 is rear wheel drive and I live in a winter climate (roads are mostly clear though) in the foothills near Salt Lake City. Any comments on the reliability of the E320, winter handling, history of problems ... would be appreciated. Replies to this message: bruhogan (Jan 28, 2009 7:00 pm)
#280 of 286 navigation system problem by rolandthrust Mar 11, 2008 (9:37 pm)
2004 E500 4matic wagon...recently upgraded the dvd (275.00) from MBNA...since then have intermitant problem where screen says "navigation activate ..please wait"...sometimes this wait is for an hour...it`s unacceptable. Dealer in Tampa thought it was due to car overcharging and after repair ,it again worked intermittantly with same problem.It`s caused us grief as I`ve been traveling extensively and depend on it. Anyone have similar problem or thoughts on what may be causing this? Should I ask to have unit replaced?
#281 of 286 BUY OR LEASE '08 E320? by bermanslaw Apr 13, 2008 (6:45 am)
For a new E320 Wagon, my N.E. New Jersey dealer offers to absorb $2400 worth of remaining lease payments on my current '04 CL500, against a sticker of about $60K on the wagon. A 39-month no money down - lease with a 50% residual prices out just under $1000/month incl. NYS sales taxes (which I would pay up front). However, there's a program now in place to finance a purchase at a 3.45% interest rate, up to 66 months with no pre-payment penalty. Dealer says there's no more than a token reduction off sticker to be had, though I haven't shopped the car or pressed. He also tells me that this interest rate, or any incentive program for that matter, is very unusual on this model. Finally, he says the E-Class will be remodeled for 2010, at which time the wagon may be eliminated from the US product line altogether. I usually lease my cars, but this lease feels expensive relative to cost, while the finance option sounds attractive at first glance. So, buy or lease? Should I expect more price flexibility in either case? Is the possible discontinuance of availability a plus (for later resale) or a minus (outdated styling)? Thanks for any advise you have to offer.
