#971 of 1094 Oil Level Warning on 03 by zeen Nov 06, 2007 (9:22 am)
My 03 E320 was giving me a message that my oil level was too high. It occurred whenvever I was driving at highway speeds. My local MB mechanic replaced the sensor because he was convinced that it wasn't overfilled. The new sensor did the same thing, so we let out about a half quart of oil but the message persists. It says I need to reduce the oil level. Seems like it's the sensor but you would think the new sensor would not be doing this. Any thoughts?

Replying to: zeen (Nov 06, 2007 9:22 am) Yes, it's possible for a new sensor to give a false reading high or low, either way and the ECU can even fail to record data and on rare occassion send faulty codes. Perhaps the "black box" data in the computer can see if the engine ever red-lined.......Good luck! Replies to this message: zeen (Nov 07, 2007 7:21 am)

Replying to: pfenton (Nov 07, 2007 4:42 am) Thanks. Out of curiosity, what does redlining have to do with the sensor saying that I have too much oil?
#974 of 1094 SOS Malfunction by zeen Nov 09, 2007 (6:58 am)
My 03 E320 is registering a malfunction message due to the lack of connection of the Tele-Aid system. I do not have that enabled. Is there a way to permanently have that message go away? (As you can tell, I've had a number of issues with this car. A Chevy would have been more trouble free) Replies to this message: jodar96 (Nov 09, 2007 8:11 am) greasykid1 (Nov 09, 2007 12:48 pm) pfenton (Nov 14, 2007 5:04 am)

When I was debating whether to buy a 03-04 or 00-02 E-Class, The MB service adviser indirectly said to go with 00-02. The 2003 E-class has had way too many nagging issues. In my mind, it is one of the most beautiful four door sedans out there....but it stop right there. Pretty to look at, but to stay away from and look at it from a distance.   My 2001 E430 with 91K miles has been very decent for 18 months that I have owned it.   Joe Replies to this message: greasykid1 (Nov 09, 2007 12:48 pm)

Replying to: jodar96 (Nov 09, 2007 8:11 am) Purposely did not buy a 2003 but did buy a 2005 (CDI). It is loaded with about every option and have had no problems.
#977 of 1094 tires/breaks.. by miker Nov 10, 2007 (2:59 pm)
I'm about to lease a e350 sport package however I'm hearing that the suspension is horrible and people are destroying rims 24/7. I'm also hearing that the breaks on this model make all types of noise.. any insight on this I know the 08 model is kinda new with the new sports suspension car looks great but I don't need a blow-out on my way to work... talk to me....

Replying to: miker (Nov 10, 2007 2:59 pm) It depends on where you live. If you live in an area with good roads, you're probably ok with the sports suspension. I would avoid it like the plague in an area with potholes etc. like the northeast. As for brakes, I haven't heard that but I bet the service dept. has a fix if it's just squeaks.
