2016 MB E400

Hi Everyone,

I am interested on a 2016 E400 with 43K Miles . Was wondering if someone can enlighten me about this model.
Any flaws and issues that you experienced that I need to know.

Eric

Check maintenance records. The tranny should have been serviced at least once.

Your question is too broad. You haven't provided your location or where the car has been. Get it inspected by a mercedes expert prior to purchase.

Love mine, only about 56K miles on it. I've owned it since early 2019 with 27K miles. I've had a JB4 tune on it since about 30K.

M276 engine is very reliable , basic Mercedes-Benz replacements such as tranny mounts. engine mounts and low pressure pump but your car's mileage is too low for those to go bad to me

I have a 2015 E400 (RWD) with 47.000 km (29K Miles) on the clock which is very reliable car. My only sorrow is not getting a late 2015/2016 model that would have NTG 5.0 on it. Check for oil leaks from the cylinder head front covers (very common on M276 and M278). Easy to fix but will take about USD 120 in expendable parts to get it done. Check engine and tranny mounts and service history as already highlighted. I know subframe corrosion is an issue depending on the region the car was used.
