Mercedes CLS 500
hello everybody
Hi everybody, I'm a new member and I have already a question: I love my CLS 500 2006... power, suspension, almost everything!
The problem is...lot of mechanical failures (it is my first Mercedes and to be honest I wasn't expecting such poor reliability from a German car).
Perhaps it was mistreated or perhaps are factory problems (as I red in some blogs); the fact is that in the past 18 months I had to change:
Brakes pump
Gear speed sensor
Discs
Right rear pneumatic suspension (the left is now starting to lower as well)
The problem is that I still love the car
, therefore i'm about to change it for a CLS 2009 model.
Now the question for everybody is: Is the 2009 CLS really more reliable than the 2006? Of course I will check it with a Mercedes mechanic from top to bottom, but regardless, I really don't know what I can expect in the long term...
Thanks for your kind assistance!
