Purposely did not buy a 2003 but did buy a 2005 (CDI). It is loaded with about every option and have had no problems.

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....

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.

Have the brakes that you are referring to. The only noise is ocassionally on start up when the pump comes on for approx. 4-5 seconds. Drive the car in question to see if this is problem.

I have an 03 E320 and put on Dunlop Signature Sports, HR rated all season. Thus far, they seem to have good grip and wet traction. Snow hasn't fallen yet however. They are pretty reasonably priced at Tire Rack.

My reference to red-lining was not literal.....I was referring to an engine being overloaded or pushed past its power peak by any number of causes including
improper oil levels........BTW...If oil level is too high and it's being whipped by
the crankshaft, it could result in airated oil in the lifters and possible damage
to the engine.

If you lease a new E350 for 3 years and 45K miles, how much should you budget for scheduled maintenance, tires, brakes and other wear items for that time and mileage?

Spark Plugs 300E by ismynamelinda

My boyfriend has a 1988 300E, he would like to know the best replacement spark plugs for this car? He bought expensive ones but they don't seem to be the best for the car. The car is either a hard start or won't start at all. Thursday he had to take sand paper to the plug to get it to start. Then Friday morning it would not start again?? Any suggestions or ideas
