Hi,
I have ML320 2000. when I push gas all the way, it doesn't accelerate and pushes back. my mechanic says it's not transmission, but he couldn't find the main problem yet. is it a common case for these cars , or does anyone have some idea about what it could be?
it drives fine besides that.
thanks in advance.

It happened to my ML 320 2000, then I discovered water trapped inside body lower sides underneath the doors. Yes, those turn into water tanks that need to be drained when rubber plugs get stucked.If you look carefully from underneath the body sides at the points were the jack is positioned when lifting the car, there are two rubber niples per side that get stucked by old dirt, just push inside with your pinky finger and will unclogg automatically letting the water out.I was told by a Mercedes mechanic that those "tanks" collect the water result from the condensation inside roof and any water that went through the sun roof by accident.

wet rugs in the front by roquep33

Water is coming to the floor from inside, front only, driver's and co-pilot. The dealer says entire roof upholstery must be taken out, I think is he's full of it, I had that problem with an old Jaguar,water was coming through windshield grill because the a/c evaporator latch was open due to faulty solenoid operation then water filled up housing till spilling occurred. Do the evaporator housings have drains ? if so where ? What could it be in my ML ? help, heeeeeeelp !

I am advising a friend about the same problem that you encountered with the keys. He has a 1998 ML320 and is totally exasperated. There is nothing I know of in the way of a solution at this point, but I was wondering what you did, if anything, to resolve the key issue.

2002 ML320 D-pillar peeling... by lovemyclk

Has anyone encountered peeling of the film on the exterior of the black D-pillar on the prior-gen ML (2002)? Understand they can be replaced in a similar fashion to a windshield - glued onto the underlying frame. Not willing to pay the cost quoted from the dealer at $250 each!
  
Would seem there is a simple remedy and repair for this... looks like the clear film protectant layer is peeling like your skin after a sunburn.
  
Thanks for any guidance on this.

I recently had the same peeling problem on my 2002 ML, only it happened on the back both sides just outside the lift gate, near the top, about 6-8 inch peel each side. My car paint color is black. I still have not done anything about it. I will be interested in hearing yours and others when resolved. What color is your car?
Thanks

My Mercedes Benz ML 320 shuts off while I'm driving by ildmel

If someone has any info, please help!! I have a Mercedes Benz ML 320 and it keeps shutting off while I'm driving, and it scares me because I always have my children, including my baby in the car. I took it to the dealer for a tune up and that's really when my problems began. I took it back to them, they took it to MB and the catalytic converter was changed. On the way home from picking it up, it turned off on my husband. Any one have any ideas?

Sounds like the same area as ours... black external surface of the D-pillar flanking the liftgate window. Body color is sand beige.

What year do you have? I have an 07 ML320 CDI and just a few days ago it shut off while driving and would not re start for 1 hr. It was a silly $20 part related to the camshaft. When it goes the cars computer just crashes.....all lights on the dash light up and the engine turns off.
 
I would try another dealer...engine failures like that are usually recorded in the cars internal computer that the dealer can see, there should be clues.
 
Good luck

I got the same problem with my ML320 year 2000. Took to dealer and they found a bad idle sensor and replaced it. It works OK since then...
More than a year now.
