Most common problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) not available

The vehicle lacks Dynamic Brake Support, which can enhance braking during emergency situations by applying additional braking force.

Potential turbocharger issues

The engine has turbocharging (indicated by "TC"), which can sometimes lead to problems such as turbo lag, turbo failure, or boost pressure issues.

Complex v-shaped engine configuration

V-shaped engines, while powerful, can be more complex and expensive to repair compared to inline engines due to their design and the placement of components.

Direct fuel injection concerns

Direct fuel injection systems can suffer from issues such as carbon buildup on intake valves, which can affect engine performance and efficiency.

High horsepower (362 hp) maintenance

High-performance engines typically require more frequent maintenance and higher quality fluids and parts to ensure longevity and optimal performance.

Potential cylinder deactivation issues

If the engine employs cylinder deactivation to improve fuel economy, there could be issues related to the deactivation mechanism causing vibrations or uneven engine performance.

Mercedes-benz specific parts and repair costs

Parts and repairs for Mercedes-Benz vehicles tend to be more expensive compared to non-luxury brands, which can increase the overall cost of ownership.

Potential for valve timing problems

With 4-stroke cycles, there is potential for issues related to the timing chain or belt, which can affect engine performance and, if not addressed, lead to significant engine damage.
