Replying to: ray_h1 (Jan 01, 2007 9:27 am) Regarding the method for calculating the MPG....Both. I work in Information Technology, so I know better than to trust a computer   The TC was within a couple tenths of the good old pencil and paper.
#7 of 24 Fuel Type for 2003 by zeen Mar 10, 2007 (3:15 pm)
I am planning to buy an 03 E320 with the base V6 that is rated for premium fuel. Will the engine perform ok with mid grade? How about regular? Thanks Replies to this message: microrepair (Mar 12, 2007 1:15 pm) zeen (Mar 12, 2007 4:35 pm) steve3226 (Mar 26, 2007 5:53 pm) zeen (Mar 26, 2007 6:26 pm)

Replying to: zeen (Mar 10, 2007 3:15 pm) Since the Premium prices went well over $3.30 around here (MA) last year, I have been using 89 0ctane almost exclusively and I have not noticed any problems or reduced fuel mileage. I am reluctant to try the 87 octane as I fear that knocking may occur and cause some engine damage. Replies to this message: zeen (Mar 12, 2007 4:35 pm)

Replying to: microrepair (Mar 12, 2007 1:15 pm) Thanks Micro. I had heard that the lower octane might trigger the check engine light.
#10 of 24 Gettin' better....! by microrepair Mar 21, 2007 (10:29 am)
Just returned from another 2000 mile trip down south and this time I got OVER 29 on two days; 29.3 on one day.. And most other days was in the 27's or higher. Hey, who needs a hybrid when ya got a luxury ride with these kind of mileage numbers?   But of course as the price of gas creeps higher each passing week, the urge to get a truly economical ride gets stronger. Ah, for the bucks to get an E-class diesel...!!

Replying to: microrepair (Aug 28, 2006 5:08 pm) My husband and I are looking at the 2000 and 2001 E320 Wagon. We have never owed a Mercedes. We have a Ford Explorer and have loved it. Now we want a station wagon that will accomodate 5 passengers comfortably. We have 2 kids and want to be able to carry a couple other people. I love the fold down seats in the back and the room I'm used to in a SUV. The E320 has the classy look, yet I'm a bit nervous about some of the reviews I've read about maintaining them. Have you experienced the electrical problems or engine issues I've been reading about? He is ready to go buy one now, but I'm a bit hesitant. What are your honest feelings as far as your experiences? Anyone have some suggestions as to another vehicle we might look into? We are being stationed in Spain soon so we like the idea of a German vehicle, yet anything is a possibility.

#12 of 24 Fuel Mileage Report by mbbrooks Mar 24, 2007 (7:01 pm)
My E350 Sport just turned 7500 miles. Since new it has averaged 19.8 MPG. Which is really good since the average speed is only 32 miles per hour. On the highway if I keep it under 80 - which is very difficult - 28 MPG is the result. Even at 100 or thereabouts I still get around 23 MPG. So far I've stayed with premium.

Replying to: zeen (Mar 10, 2007 3:15 pm) I notice a difference in 87 vs 91 on my E-320. It will drive OK on 87 but the performance degradation isn't worth it, IMO. Replies to this message: zeen (Mar 26, 2007 6:26 pm)

Replying to: steve3226 (Mar 26, 2007 5:53 pm) I noticed that as well on my BMW but 89 seems to be fine. If I do highway driving, I use 91 but for everyday varied use, it's mid-grade
