Agree 100% on what you said about putting winter tires on. In 2019, I crashed my Mom's GLC300 into a curb because the OEM Pirellis were nearly worn, the road was icy, and I lost control when going around a curb surrounding a tree. Wasn't even going that fast. We got Michelin Latitude X-Ice XI2 winter tires with aftermarket wheels and they are good for treadlife, but I wish we had gotten the Nokians you have.

[@POGAuto]

Thank You for watching and I have actually done a video on the pirellis vs the nokian winters that came with the GLC

[@alexing9858]

damnn bro, my mom would disown me if i crashed her benz 😭

[@BusMaster99]

@@alexing9858 I payed to have the rim repaired, only cost $110. I also chipped in $800 towards the winter tire and wheel package.

[@alexing9858]

@@BusMaster99 oh man i thought u meant the whole car was messed up

[@BusMaster99]

@@alexing9858 No. I should have been more specific. It was just a curb crash, but only the right rear rim was affected.

Awesome review man. Very underrated

[@warren9402]

Although a C class, one of the best looking sedans on the street.

[@reempire888]

I absolutely love this car. It's not overly big, it's nimble and it's fast! Did I say this car handles and corners like a race car? Look at those tires it will be expensive to replace though.

I have a c300 2018. The car is very low. Did you ever get the bottom of your bumper scratched? Wondering how much it costs to fix.

What kind of rims do you have, look super clean.

[@davidaltamirano7672]

I had my w205 diesel 220 and i loved that car. Ordered it from the factory and had i for 7 years before crashed this week :( Man i loved that car. The only things i had to fix during those years was new brake pads. No mechanical issues still after 160 000 km. The only negatives is that the fake leather ripped and i only weigh 80kg. The car was also a bit low so sometimes when driving over a speedbump it scrapped the bottom of the front bumper. Also the washer fluid stopped working since it got clogged and that is a common issue i have heard.

[@carl4298]

almost same story had also 220 diesel 5 years 170 km zero problems, 2 weeks ago I crashed it, thinking about the same car again

[@hightiernub1313]

Is the maintenance okay? They keep saying it's bad.

[@CAS482]

How many hours was the mechanic working on your car for service? The labor amount 591.50 is a lot even for 2 to 3 hours of work

[@vornamenachname5589]

i liked the analogue clock in the middle, too. such a shame they get rid of it in all actual models.

Hi Pog, I just have a question about when you had your 2018 Merceds C300 4Matic. Did you every have a problem with engine code P052E71 Valve crankcase ventilation malfunction?

[@KrsHQ]

Hey Corey, I have the same issue with mine. Apparently pretty common, had a friend who had to replace the crank case 3 times within the time he had the car also. Not a super urgent fix but I wouldn’t neglect it as I believe it can create carbon build up in the motor (not a mechanic though so I could be wrong about that)

[@mercpindi5522]

I like w204 design more

Are 2016 c-300 same as 2018 if not whats the difference?

at about 6 minutes 4 sec you say the bottom of door the light luminates the Mercedes Benz logo.....is that a factory feature or you bought something aftermarket?

[@POGAuto]

it was a oem add on installed by the dealership

[@gagandeepsingh5400]

Hi i am student in California and i am planning to get a Mercedes but i am confused in c 300 and Gla 250. I know you have both your sister has gla soo what do you prefer. Also i can pay $800 monthly EMI.

[@POGAuto]

Both our C-Class and GLA are 2018 Model year. I find my C-Class more comfortable and the interior is much nicer too. If you are looking into a 2021 GLA I think it’s worth to take it for a test drive and see how you like it. If it matters to you I also find the GLA standard speakers better than my C-Class and the GLA also has Apple Car Play. When it comes to driving I find the C-Class really fun to drive

[@SamirKhan-yd5bi]

Honestly I was in the same position as u and the biggest factor leading me to buy the c class was the body shape. The c class has an amazing flow to it but the GLA looks like a tiny suv might as well get a fucking Subaru.

[@gagandeepsingh5400]

@@POGAuto thank you sooo much for your feedback. I am looking for the used C Class with Burmeister sound system and Multibeam headlights..! Just like yours and then will give it some little performance and visual upgrades.! 2021 model are lil expensive. Also the driving dynamic and performance of a Sedan is unbeatable.

[@waterlion786]

Bro instead of talking about the small things like snow and wipers you should mention the engine issues or if u spent anything on maintained and what the costs are it will be a much better review rather than sharing your stories about someone hitting the door handle that’s not an issue with the car that a potential buyer wants that can happen with any car we want to know about cost of owning and maintenance

[@themauriziomantovan]

How is the gas consumption vs the c43?

[@POGAuto]

I have a video on gas consumption on this c300

[@bobbobby5141]

not gonna lie you attempting to leave your driveway even though there was that much snow left on the end of your driveway would stop anyone that has a Sadan or coupe like car regardless of model so don't be surprised you get stuck even with good snow tires

I think 2018 C300 still has M274 engine (MB changed to newly designed much improved M264 in 2019 for C). This 274 engine has famous piston#1 cracking problem during 20K-60K miles. Watch our for this tick bomb..

Why would you buy a benz when you can get all the same features in a Hyundai for less money.

[@POGAuto]

Hyundai does have a lot of features but it is no where near as comfortable or as fun to drive as a Mercedes. I used to own a 2016 Tucson Ultimate 1.6T

[@josee.1278]

Because it’s German engineering and Hyundai is Korean. Reliability+Luxury. Hyundai has come a long way but at the end of the day it’s still a Hyundai and not everyone wants to drive one. To each their own. I own a 2017 Mercedes Benz C3004matic sport+night package and I drive it daily. I do my own oil changes as well since it’s fairly easy.
