There are loads of ML's for sale because even the head of Mercedes said the cars they produced since the tie up with Chrysler are crap. They are way down the reliability scale and you can't get the info to DIY easily like the P38. Watch out for rust apparently German taxi drivers buy older Mercs and refurbish them rather than buy newer models just for durability

its no problem realy i run a five ramp engine reconditioners and we also have a body shop. any car can give problems i just prefer the drive of the ml and i dont have any issues with performance

wait til all the injectors go at the same time, and if you got self-levelling suspension, be prepared for the pump to go as well. £4,000 fix

you have more chance of winning the lottery than 6 injectors going at once and no self leveling suspension any thing else you can think of

Dont bet on it. All 6 of my dads went at same time and he still hasnt won the lottery. Nothing else major has went wrong. Just extortionate bills, but then again, any problems and he goes to the stealers.

did you ever drive his ml what did you think of it

Never drove it myself, sorry. he moans about a hard ride, but then again, he is 51. Also, Lewis Hamilton owns one. That's enough to put me off.

Great on the motorway, but ours used to get stuck on slightly damp grass

Oh, almost forgot, Crankshaft sensor. He's on his 3rd.

no more please im going to slash my wrists

I dont think you should worry. As far as I see it, cars have different personalities/character/trait or whatever. He's just got a duff one. Same as all these people who have problems with their p38's....mine's fine.
