2004 E320 Base Model Sedan W211
Lots of questions have about mine. Takes time sift through them all get mixed up. My W211 04 E320 Sedan not sure about. Mine has some minor problems fixes would like to do. Just not sure whats best can afford a few things. Would be great full for advice and input only on our year model. Not a 4matic has 142k overall its like new. Asked lots of questions I just cant keep up with it. I guess getting old does that

Alternatively, you can ask specific questions related to specific actions of the vehicle. We can try to help you work through each item one at a time, but asking for a general rundown is like asking a bag of Skittles what color they generally run.
These cars don't have a ton of notable, repeated problems. There are some, but not so many that we'd be unable to help you. What issues are you having specifically?

I wish I could post the local family owned import shop I found. Went for a oil change told him what was going on. This man got in my car and took it for a drive. The problem with mine was nothing more than needing a tune up it was way past due which I did not know. Lot I bought it from has done nothing but lie about them servicing it. It was idling to low, way over due for a tune up. It runs like brand new!!!!

I only buy used from Private Party, with an available service history of the car. Then I have the car checked out by my mechanic prior to making an offer on the vehicle.
This mostly does eliminate most, if not all, hidden surprises.
Glad your car is running as expected again and that you area happy owner.

Hence, .... Do not ever buy from "just a lot" unless it has a well known reputation.
