hello 1st of all thanks to all
I'm located in PUERTO RICO and to be honest here MB the service here really sucks they never find the problems and there's allot of red tape . i had a E430 with 16,000 miles and they had it almoust every week on the shop with a diferent problem and they changed avery part of that car and finally the decided to buy it back from me and ofered me my 2003 w211
About theese responses i will copy them to mi notepad and take them to my MB dealer the next time the car needs a service wich is around the corner.
My 2003 w211 has been a pain they even changed the transmision when it was brand new ,,,, and now when i turn the weel it sounds aufull no matter in what direction i turn the weel and it never stops .. this will be the new thing..
MY LEXUS IS 300 HAS NEVER GIVEN ME ANY PROBLEMS AT ALL AND THE SERVICE ADVISORS ARA IMPECABLE....
