Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V6 engines in the 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class are prone to developing oil leaks, often from the valve cover gaskets or oil pan.

Timing chain issues

Timing chain tensioners and guides can wear out over time, leading to potential timing chain problems, which can cause engine misfires or even severe engine damage if not addressed.

Coolant leaks

The coolant system components, such as hoses and the water pump, can develop leaks, leading to overheating and potential engine damage.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines, like the V6 in the 2016 E-Class, can suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, which can cause rough idling, misfires, and a decrease in performance.

Turbocharger problems

If the engine is turbocharged, the turbocharger can experience failures, such as bearing wear or wastegate issues, leading to a loss of power and efficiency.

Spark plug and ignition coil failure

The ignition coils and spark plugs can wear out or fail, causing misfires, poor fuel economy, and rough engine performance.
