Thinking to buy 2008 E320 Bluetech
Hi All,
I am thinking to buy 2008 E320 Bluetech Diesel Mercedes. It has usen by elderly woman and 90k miles. I am wondering is there any problematic issue on this particular model and what's your recommendation to check any kind of parts before I purchase?
Thanks.

PS: I can share the VIN If anybody can check & see the specs.

Yes there are problematic issues with the om642 engine in it. Really depends on how well it was maintained and how much maintenance was deferred. Look up om642 oil cooler, oil consumption, EGR, EKAS, repair costs. The rest of the car is bulletproof. Good luck.
