Long term reliability
Hi all,

I'm a former E55 owner that is looking at a '13 CLS 63 with 53k miles. I'll DD the car and I know 53k miles isn't much but I'm looking for members with near or over 100k miles and would love to hear what they've experienced and how this motor/powertrain has been.. My E55 was flawless, never an issue and I'm hoping for good feedback on the twin-turbo.


Thanks in advance!

Do it and don't look back. I had a stage 2 renntech E55, then a 2010 E63, and now a 12 CLS63 and this car is just superior in every way possible.

just make sure there is no oil in the engine harness before you actually pay for it and pick the car up..
