ML550 - long term ownership reliability / problems?

Had an '06 ML350, traded it in on a 2016 Tacoma 2.5 years ago, and am wanting to get back into an ML. Considering 2012+ ML550 models, and hopefully with the off-road package.

How are these ML550s for reliability? Any issues to be aware of? Hoping to keep it for around 10 years and do most of the (basic) work myself. Feasible?

if you have air suspension those will go. They are considered wear items.

Keyless go handles....blind spot sensors. Maybe the odd pulley...

You should be good.
