2002 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E270 CDI review from UK and Ireland
"Rubbish"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Within one month of buying my E270 CDI, things started going wrong.
To start with it was radio problems, then computer problems. Once, as I was driving home from the dealership after another fault, I heard a loud banging noise from the rear. It was the shock absorbers falling to bits!
Also two safety recalls for brake problems.
This year 05 has been just as bad.
We came back off 2 weeks holiday and the battery was dead.
Then I was in the garage with another problem, when I was told it needed a new turbo.
That was the last straw. I sold the car in Aug 05 after 20 visits to the garage, it would have been more, but I do have to go to work sometimes!
General comments?
M-benz Uk where no help, and the dealerships are worse.
Save your time and money buy a KIA!
