ml420

Am thinking of trading in my 2008 W211 E320 cdi with 42 k on the clock for a one owner 2007 ML 420 with 69 k miles. I need something higher off the ground for easier access and to transport a couple of dogs ( well my wife has told me we do ) I would like to enjoy some decent power again, miss...

I've not found yet E320 in shape and form that I would like to buy so I'm expanding my search adding the ML to the list. Should have pick one on Sunday but the seller decide to sell it prior to my agreed visit. Never mind it's gone. My question is as per title ML320 VS ML420 pros and cons...

Hi there.. Have just bought a ML420.. I need the head gaskets repaired and need a good garage for this.. Am in Cornwall.. Any advice please.?

I'm not sure, but when I pulled away quickly from a lay-by earlier first gear revved out really quickly and second gearstarted to and then found traction. Is that possible in a big 4x4? I had it remapped last week and this is the first time I've noticed it. Doesn't it have TC though that should...

I had a knightmare getting these things to fit. The hub lip wasn't long enough to reach the centre bore of the wheel as it was chamfered. So I tried spigot rings, didn't work and eventually found some hubcentric spacers that had a longer lip. Anyway, here they are on: I think it needs lowering...

I've only ever had 1 diesel car remaped before and wasn't massively impressed with the results. Granted it was someone popping round my house for half an hour and charging £170 for the privilege. I'm thinking about getting my ml420 remaped with GAD tuning. Has anyone had any experience of...

Hi. I've just bought my ml and already I've gearbox concerns. When pulling away quickly in 1st it seems to rev hard and then suddenly drop/thump into gear. Also, again when accelerating hard it feels like the traction control kicks between 1st and 2nd, it pauses and then goes again. Has anyone...

Hi. I've just part exchanged my 2004 clk55 for the above. It was kind of a spur if the moment thing that I'm not sure if I'm regretting. I read loads of good reviews on ml420's and went to look at one and ended up driving it home. Is it normal to have a slight tapping noise coming from the...

Hi Folks, Long time lurker, first time I've actually created a thread. I was pointed to a thread about a car that I'm trying to sell on this forum - however I know that advertising is against the rules so really looking for some advise. We've been trying to sell our well maintained and looked...

Hi folks, Came across this Mercedes Benz ML420 CDI - 4.0 V8 Torque and Power Yet Still Gets 30+ MPG. FSH. | eBay Are the claims about MPG true ? I cant imagine that a big V8 tank can be more economical than a V6 but I may be wrong. May be worth slapping a bid on for the winter ? Are these...

Hi all, In 2 to 3 weeks i'll be looking at these and hopefully picking one up. It needs to have the air suspension which despite what I thought they don't all have and not be silver, any other colour is considered, midnight blue would be perfect but that is asking for the moon on a stick...

Anyone know of a ML420Cdi with good spec, such as rear entertainment, AMG looks etc. I'm looking for a high spec car with no more than 80k miles about 06-09 in black. Any info greatly appreciated. Thank you :o

Just perusing the internet this morning planning for my eventual change of car in a couple of months and I can't stop looking at ML & GL V8 CDI's and the ML63. I've got used to low 20's mpg in the Discovery, so that's not that much of a concern really, but I do like to know what I'm letting...

Hello, I am looking to purchase the above car and would like help with ipod and phone connectivity. The car has command with DVD sat nav, and phone pre wire [there is a connector in the centre arm rest] I think that blu-tooth connectivity for the phone would be my best option, as my partner...

Well Guys, I was on here a few months ago after some advise on buying a CLS however due to various issues I diddnt end up buying the one. I had the chance to purchase an Audi A8 Which was a great car but my word was it boring for me... so its sold now and im back in the market for either a...
