Bad Car - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By Davis - September 25 - 4:00 amI bought this car, my first Mercedes, and while driving down the road, with the family, the front drivers side coil spring came flying out. This also caused the ball joint and the tie rod to give up the ghost. Asked Mercedes for help with the bill, 1700.00 and got a resounding NO!. Seems like this should be a recall, and or Mercedes would live up to the mechanical default without me having to hire a lawyer. Wont own another, I will but something that doesnt self destruct while Im driving down the road.

OUTSTANDING !!!!!!!!!!!! - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By H-Bag - September 11 - 10:00 amEither Im the luckiest man alive or those germans really know HOW TO BUILD THEM !!.....This 4matic is coming close to 100k miles and so far no problems at all other than regular maintenance. Also this car is a BEAST in the snow w/artic alpines of course.

This Car is Great - If you know what to Buy! - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By John Sakon - September 5 - 6:51 pmI purchased my 1999 MB-320 when it was 3 years old with 12,500 miles. I have since driven is 217,000 miles. It is reliable, dependable and I get reasonable gas mileage. Mind you, this is the year when the Germans came to America to fix the MB American plant. The 1998 model was assembled by the Americans and was a total piece of crap. It broke. The 1999 had the same problems up to about April 1999. Then the Germans came in and straightened things out. So if you buy this used, carefully look at the date of manufacture. If it is prior to April, run! If it is after April, you have a good truck. Two problems to watch out for. The check Engine light comes on and the dealer wants $450-$700 to fix. This is a total rip off. The MB Bosch Mass Air Flow Sensor retails for $350. However, a cheap British Car uses the exact same Bosch Mass Air Flow Sensor as the ML and it can be purchased for $150. Twenty minutes with a screw driver and reset the computer and your Check Engine LIght problems are solved. One time I was traveling and the my car dies. Only one occurance. Wait a while and it was fine. Limped to my mechanic (car dies and then drives) and he replaced a $5 ignition part. End of Story. Buying a used ML I would talk to a good MB mechanic and id that part. He will know the culprit off the top of his head. Just replace it immediately. If you treat this car nice, it will treat you nice. Get good tires (Michelin). You can use cheap gas. The computer adjusts. You sacrifice some power, but you will catch everybody at the next light. This care likes to do 80. It hates doing 60. It can do 90 to 100 without any problem. So if you are out west, it is good on those long lonely highways. Take care!

The best or nothing? - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By hank55 - August 23 - 2:26 pmMy glamorous E 320 @ 38k miles start to show rust bubbles all over the body and cracks around the passenger air bag on the dashbord, the wood finish on the center console is peeling out, the turn signal is loose from the base, I must say that this car is garage kept and no winters what so ever! so when I call MB they request pictures of the car, no problem, then Mary call me and refuse my claim saying that the car was too old to help me, I explain that I have a ML with more miles and no rust and there are more cars like mine around the globe with the same problems and how MB help them out again the anwer was no and also the supervisor said no!

My Benz- - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By joncab - July 10 - 2:53 pmWell built, strong automoblie. Also, has very high resale. The bose stereo is wonderful! I still cant beleive the great MPG I get, 22-25. On a V6, 215 HP, almost full size sedan. Not too bad. Rear wheel drive is the only way to go!

Could not be better! - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By JCJ - June 8 - 4:13 pmGreat fuel economy. Great dealer support. My 3rd Benz and certainly not my last. Pity there are so little choices in North America for Diesels. Audi also has excellent diesel products.

Lone star - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By diesel benz forever - May 5 - 8:50 pmI have driven MB for 20 years. The 1999 turbo diesel is a great car. It has plenty power on the highway. I am the second owner. It did have 70,000 km mostly highway. Replaced glow plugs, rotors, pads, front bearings, and the battery. I want to keep it and will replace timing chain before it hits the 300,000 km

boat review - 1999 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
By me review - December 11 - 2:00 amThis car was perfect right off the lot. After 5 years I have had minimal maintenance performed and no major problems. It is the best car I have ever owned in 40 years.
