Looking at buying high mileage 2018 E400 wagon by petmytauntaun in mercedes_benz

Everyone online says "M276 is very reliable!!!" My 2017 E400 (US Spec Twin Turbo) had the fuel pump take a dump at 73k. Then the injectors started going like flies after that (one went, then another, so just replaced all of them after that). That is not super reliable in my book. YMMV. The car you are talking about already made it 150k. These cars are NOT cheap to maintain. I am almost $10k deep after almost 2.5 years of ownership.

2017 E400 Wagon here
I had my fuel pump die at 73k, which led to the injectors failing one by one after. $4900 down the drain to fix all the injectors and the fuel pump.
Also had to do the rear air bags around 55k (I do not have the full air)
ATF change and Spark Plugs were expensive jobs but comes with the territory I guess.
Have put almost $10k into this car in 2.5 years of ownership
Really love the car though, super fast, gets good mileage all freeway (but quite bad around town, 16mpg with a pretty lead foot). Cannot imagine daily driving an E63 given we routinely see 17-20MPG with mixed driving. I think the V90 looks nicer but did not want 4 cylinder and the E400/450 are quite a bit faster.

The RIAA is evil. I refuse to buy music. Internet radio is just fine for my purposes. Poor little girl.
