I agree with you about the maintenance and fixing costs. I'm having a 2007 E350 for 5 years with 130k miles on it. Affordable and I'm a student. I'm just afraid of the transmission. That's all
@JustinFrascona5 жыл бұрын
Transmissions are solid. Not sure which one you have but mine is the 722.6 same tranny in amg cars and the g wagons from that time. I don't think the v6 makes enough power to really damage it. I think if you keep up with the maintenance and service the tranny regularly you really don't have anything to worry about. Most of the time the issue isn't even with the clutches and just the conductor plate you can get the whole service kit with the conductor plate for less than 300 on fcp euro.

The srs light shows on my dashboard and my mechanic said it's the airbag and it would cost 1800.00 to repair. I left it. You pointed out the belt buckle which could be my problem.
@JustinFrascona4 жыл бұрын
I'd trust your mechanic, he should have a scanner that will tell you why the srs light is on. Most commonly it's the sensor in the seat that goes bad.

I also have a srs light on in my 04 e320 was like that when I bought it never got it scanned the guy said it was the seat belt buckle which it could be but the light in the center console area that says “passenger airbag off” is illuminated not sure if that has something to do with it
@JustinFrascona3 жыл бұрын
You’ll need a scanner that can access the SRS computer to tell for sure. It’s common for the passenger seat weight sensor to fail. It’s also common for the buckles to need replacing as well. In my car both were the issue.

I’m hoping your still responding to this channel, I just bought a 2008 e350 RWD and found out yesterday that I need an intake manifold, cam sensors and front brakes. The German auto shop wants 2600 dollars. Could you tell me what an intake manifold should cost?
@JustinFrascona2 жыл бұрын
Hey thanks for watching, not sure on the price of installation at a shop. I have a video on here replacing the intake manifold on my old car. It’s a common issue. The job is a pain but can be knocked out in a drive way over a day. I think it took me like 4 hours total and the part was about 700 from fcp euro.

Hey I got the same Benz but regular sedan, of course mines got more mileage being in the military but definitely enjoy it but I had the same minor issues. I see you're from Jersey the potholes killed my Benz but now that I'm station in Oklahoma the roads are much better. Have you had any issues with the seatbelt my passenger buckle has to be always clip on so it doesn't beep do you think is the same type of issue as the SRS message you had.
@JustinFrascona6 жыл бұрын
From what i understand the seats have sensors in them that identify when a person is sitting in them. Most likely you seat sensor is the issue making the car think someone is in it all the time. If plugging in the seat belt stops the sound id say the buckle is okay and its the seat itself. Thanks for commenting and watching!
