#103 of 112 Running boards for ML by chint Feb 21, 2008 (7:10 pm)
I recently traded my R for a new ML320 CDI . I find it little difficult getting in and out of ML without side steps or running boards as ML has little higher ground clearence than the R.   The cost for the delaer installed option when purchasing was 510 ( Free installation) Unfortunately the dealer had the part on order and I did'nt want to wait   But now when I enquired my local dealer about the running boards he says the price is 940 + installation   Any recomendations on where to get the running board ( the new aluminium ones with black spots)
#104 of 112 2008 ML 350 - Transmission Problems???? by lawing1 Apr 04, 2008 (8:21 am)
Am considering buying a 2008 ML350.    Have the 2006 ML350 7-speed transmission problems (jerkiness, surging and lunging) of the vehicle when driving slow or stopping been resolved by MB?   TIA
#105 of 112 I dont really know about that but... by s550iwish Apr 04, 2008 (6:39 pm)
I currently own the 2007 ML350. When i drive it, i dont feel any problems at all. Every once in a while the car doesnt shift automatically to the next gear. It takes a couple seconds. But never felt any jerking or lunging.   lawing, you should not get the 2008 ML just yet. if possible, wait until may or until the 2009 ML Class is released. It looks sooooo much nicer. look it up or go to this link below for some pics of it. The 2009 ML will receive a facelift as well as minor changes to the rear as you will see in these pictures.   http://www.zimbio.com/Mercedes-Benz/articles/117/2009+Mercedes+Benz+ML+63+AMG+Fa- celift Replies to this message: dmaxwellh (Apr 17, 2008 11:40 am)

#107 of 112 06 M 350: endless expensive repairs by petercspodick Apr 15, 2008 (8:04 am)
April 15th, '08 QUESTION: IS THERE ANY HISTORY OF LAWSUITS AGAINST MB FOR POORLY MADE CARS? The latest update: dealer wants $4000 to DIAGNOSE problem noise, which seems to be in the transmission. That will make $10,000 in 12 months! Connnecticut car, purchased new. We've seen it all...thousands for brake rebuild, a rim and tire replaced ($1500) from turnpike hazard (non-warranty repair, which, dealer says, was changed in subsequent MB warranties because of OUR CAR! (Damaged rim has been on display at the dealership the last 2 years, to show buyers how great the warranty is on the new Benz!) There is much more, of course. An expensive car that promises plenty and doesn't deliver, and offers no dealer/MB support. So: anyone familiar with either lawsuit or a helpful ear at Benz? Any suggestions, aside from quiuckly getting a Lexus?

Replying to: genegray (Sep 22, 2005 8:18 pm) Is it possible to get an update from this fellow? Time has passed, and he may have perspectives which would be useful for me. Our cars were both purchased new, and he was already -then- having transmission problems. We also spent a fortune repairing power steering. Replies to this message: mbzfan06 (Apr 20, 2008 11:28 am)

Replying to: s550iwish (Apr 04, 2008 6:39 pm) Any idea when the '09 model will become available? Thanks.

Replying to: petercspodick (Apr 15, 2008 8:45 am) Some of the early 2006 ML's had tranny problems, but it seems they have fixed that problem... my 2006 ML350 tranny has been fine from day 1.   I had a power steering and suspension part replacement that was covered by a recall notice, but they were never problems.   Why was your power steering problems not covered by warranty?

Replying to: spokesman001 (Sep 21, 2007 10:49 am) I have a 2006 ML 350 and a couple of months ago I started to have the same problem with the transmission. The car is at the dealer at the moment and they will let me know an estimate tomorrow. Is this a normal wear&tear problem? My warranty is over. Replies to this message: cneff (Aug 08, 2008 9:27 pm)

Replying to: inge2 (Aug 05, 2008 1:03 pm) your warranty should not be over, 4 years 50k miles - whichever comes first. Have you done 50k miles already?
