Eyeing on CLS 350 CGI 2007
Hello,
I have been eyeing on this mercedes at the auction. I have inspected the car and all seem to be fine until when i researched about the m272 engine. There were a lot of posts about the balance shaft issue. Other than the wear and tear parts which is common among all car makes.
I have been given the vin number :- WDD2193572A099985
Engine no :- 27298530523941
This car is clocked at 79515 miles.
Should i proceed to buy this car?
I do have some reserve funds for mainteance and repair cost. BUT the balance shaft and gear seeem to be the most costly of all!
Thank you

No need to worry about balance shaft you’re fine. Normally do not comment on purchases sure others will, here is the data card to confirm equipment.
