- All Activity Module Fan (search for "e-box")
- Fuel pump (approximately $1,000)
- MAF (approximately $1,000)
- Multiple O2 sensors (approximately $200 each)
- Navigation antenna (approximately $500)
- Navigation CD (approximately $150, but you might also be capable of recording a duplicate)
If you can tolerate those caveats, the ML430 is a reliable, well-engineered machine. As anybody here might recommend, purchase the most recent model year that your budget permits.
Happy driving!

Will any of these items be covered in my extended warranty?
