MERCEDES 170 and MERCEDES W213

You are respected to our readers two generations of cars that are divided by almost 70 years. Amazing transformation is not true, and who said that we no longer live?

Interior

In the salon E-class reigns award superiority. All parts are organically arranged and form a single form. The decorative elements on the instrument panel smoothly go to the facing of the doors and create a refined image. Ergonomic panel, comfortable chairs, high-quality finish materials raise the level of comfort to premium.

Enhancing efficiency comfort and exemplary safety.

Whether it is an hour of peak, a long night trip or an unfamiliar road - the E-class Sedan will significantly remove the load from the driver, especially in the stressful situation. The concept that makes every trip by Mercedes-Benz safe and unique is called Mercedes-Benz Intelligent Drive. The time you spend behind the wheel of the car should not be invested. This is time to relax. Time to restore forces. The car is reliably and comfortable will deliver you to the destination.

In January 2016, Mercedes-Benz simultaneously introduced the next, fifth in the account of the International North American Auto Show on the network and the next, generation of the Golden Middle of its model range and the present bestseller - the E-Class three-volume trials with the intra-water index "W213". The car, which the Germans themselves call the "smartest and technological business sedan", after reincarnation, died into the "family" design of the brand, enlarged in size, and in terms of the degree of equipment and at all swung at the "senior" S-Class. On sale, including in the Russian market, the four-terminal appeared in the spring of 2016.

Exterior Mercedes-Benz E-Class Fifth generation was performed in accordance with the actual direction of the German brand - restrained elegance and sophisticated sportiness are harmoniously around the car appearance. The front of the sedan clings the look with beautiful complexe headlamps and a large grill of the radiator (its design depends on the version), and behind the flagship of the flagship "ECHA", exposing the spectacular lights with the "star dust" and the embossed bumper with two nozzles of the exhaust system.

The interior is dominated by two 12.3-inch screens located under the overall glass: the left play the role of the dashboard, and the right is responsible for multimedia functions. That's just less rich versions, they are inferior to the usual analog "tool" and a central monitor with a diagonal of 8.4 inches. Organically fit into the situation and a fried three-spoke steering wheel, and the presentable central console, decorated with an elegant climatic "remote", analog balls and additional buttons.

For the front sediments, the E-class of the fifth generation provides comfortable chairs with a carefully verified profile, good side support and a bunch of electrically regulations that are optionally replaced by "active" seats with a variable grip. The rear sofa assigns the royal space to the two passengers, but the third may be nominal due to the high central tunnel.

The baggage compartment of the German sedan of a full-sized class in the "hiking" state accommodates 540 liters of the boot. The "gallery" is folded by three parts, but smooth, but the noticeable step prevents the formation of an even gender.

Before the "hundred" car breaks down after 6.2-7.9 seconds, it extremely recruits 233-250 km / h and "digest" 6.9-7.3 liters of fuel in mixed mode.
• "Top" execution E400 4Matic The six-cylinder 3.5-liter V6 aggregate with a turbocharger, direct injection technology, adjustable gas distribution phases and low-noise chains in a 24-valve GDM drive producing 333 horsepower at 5250-6000 rpm and 480 Nm of rotating potential at 1200-4000 rev / m .

In the first solution, the engine generates 150 "horses" at 3200-4800 rev and 360 Nm of rotating thrust at 1400-2800 rpm, and in the second - 195 forces at 3800 rev / minute and 400 nm at 1600-2800 r v / m . Such characteristics allow the four-door to leave behind the initial "hundred" after 7.3-8.4 seconds and recruit 224-240 km / h, while spending no more than 4.3 liters of "diesel engines" in the track / city mode.

At the heart of the "fifth" Mercedes-Benz e-class - "rear-wheel drive" MRA architecture with independent suspensions of all wheels: a double-handed system is involved in the front, and on the rear axle - multi-dimensional. The chassis with steel springs is available in three solutions - the usual, with 15 mm clearance and adaptive shock absorbers.

The history of this popular model, which has always combined comfort, reliability and high degree Safety is very extensive. The first car of this series (model 170) was created in 1947 and marked the beginning of post-war production. Then in 1953 followed the model 180 and 190, better known as "Ponton Mercedes". In the next 9 years, more than 468 thousand cars of this series were sold, including diesel. The production of the W110 series began in 1961, and before February 1968, more than 628 thousand cars were issued. This successful series was replaced by no less successful W114 / 115. In 1968, a sedan with an elongated wheelbase was first seen, as well as a coupe version. In 1976, a series of cars W123 followed. In addition, an version of the execution of the wagon appeared. And finally, the debut of the W124 series, which took place in November 1984. Thus, 5 generations of cars were changed before in 1995 an E-class appeared, which truly surprised everyone with his fundamentally new "four-chapted" muzzle.

From instances of this E-class, made no earlier than the end of the 93rd, the W124 series of early years can be distinguished by deep niche under the rear license plate and narrow black side moldings. Of particular interest is "one-hander twisting" janitor ". In W124, a differential with automatic lock (ASD), an anti-slip system (ASR) and, for the first time on serial passenger Mercedes, a four-wheel drive with automatic torque distribution (4Matic) appeared. In September 1988, W124 buyers were offered as additional equipment Airbag ... .. Four years later and airbag, and ABS entered the basic equipment of all Mercedes.

It is quite conservative (in a good sense) and convenient in operation, reliable, with durable engines and a spacious lounge with a beautifully worked interior and ergonomics Mercedes-Benz W124 is a practically reference car of the 1980s. Seven interior options are envisaged with tapestry or leather seats. Huge adjustment driver's seat, remotely removed head restraints from behind, comfortable seat belts, tightness and excellent body insulation - for this it is worth paying those who are above all appreciated the comfort and safety of the ride. The only drawback of a huge 520-liter luggage compartment is the impossibility of placing the long cargo inside the cabin - compensated by good lighting, low arrangement of the trunk edge and practical pockets for small things and tools.

In August 1989, W124 has undergone cosmetic retouching. It received wide plastic lining on the door and the bottom of the body with a chrome-plated molding. On the bumpers and door handles appeared chrome. The glasses of headlights have changed. The cabin has become more space, more comfortable seats appeared, and valuable varieties of wood began to be used wider in the finish. In the same year, Mercedes W124 for the first time the motors with a fully electron control of nutrition and ignition systems were presented.

So, as a result of the next modernization of the W124 model at the end of 1993, the first e-class appeared, which currently remains a rather prestigious car. At that time, a new indexation of all "Mercedes-Benz" was introduced: instead of "200E", "220E", and so on, more modern "E200", "E220", "E280" ... The letter is ahead of the e-class, and the following numbers - engine volume. So the first e-class appeared, which will be discussed.

The first e-class was distinguished by an almost flat back wall of the trunk cover (very similar to the "one hundred forty"), so the deep niche of the number sign gave way to simple firewall, on the sidewalls of the body chrome-plated molding and wide lining, the grille of the radiator "drown" in the hood. When the e-class went on sale, a lot of former generation machines remained on the warehouses of Mercedes dealers throughout Europe, which began to turn into an e-class. For this, it was necessary, by and large, to replace only the hood with a falseradiator grille and the lid of the trunk. European dealers conducted such an operation only with the machines of 92-93 years, which have already appeared gasoline engineshaving four valves per cylinder (technically these cars do not differ from the E-class). However, in our market you can meet alleged E-class in general eighties! Simply, in addition to all, in return for old-fashioned side moldings on the sidewalls of the body, modern plastic lining is installed. Such machines are given, first of all, the motors with two valves per cylinder. In the service you can control the year of the machine, downloading its VIN number to the computer.

Cars "Mercedes" are initially very expensive, but at the same time very strong and hardy. E-class exists in several bodies, first of all, these are "sedans", which prevail in the market for used cars. E-class universals (Touring) - optimal option For practical people. Saving all the advantages of the sedan, the wagon has advantages - a large useful volume of the cabin, which, with a folded back (average), a row of seats reached 2180 liters. In his trunk, you can install an additional 2-seater with which the total number of seats comes to seven. However, the main rear seat can be folded in the ratio of 2: 1. The model has kept the unique rear hydraulic and automatic swap to maintain the continuous level of the back of the body over the road. In the Mercedes program, the wagon is denoted by the Literary "T" after the numbers, for example, "E280T". This is one of the most spacious universal in its class.

Traditionally, the "personal" models of Mercedes-Benz with a two-door body coupe without an average roof rack were always considered, the so-called Hardtop, which, with lowered side glasses on the "ventilation" of the cabin, are comparable to the cabriolet. At the same time, such a body is much more practical, and his passive security above. The streamlined body, made on a shortened (85 mm) sedan chassis, turned out to be very stylish. The coupe was indicated by the Litera "C".

Convertible "Cabrio" is created on the basis of the coupe. One of the few cabriolets created on the basis of a business class car. This full quadruple car (which is rare among modern machines of this type) with automatically folding riding equipped only petrol engines.

Mersedes E-Class is one of the few cars that are offered with such a wide range of engines - from modest four cylinders to multi-line V8 ...

Series M111 is equipped with two four-cylinder engines - "E200" with a capacity of 136 hp and "E220" - 150 hp These engines themselves are reliable and durable, but they were equipped with various injection systems. The unsuccessful option is the so-called PMS injection. Its control unit is too sensitive to water and salt. It is afraid of the elementary washing of the motor.

Further, the six-cylinder E-class series "M104" - modifications "E280" (193 hp) and "E320" (220 hp) - with typically Mercedesian silentness and dynamism even with full loading. For this, however, it is necessary to pay a solid fuel consumption. In the city, six-cylinder cars eat about 17l / 100 km. Motors of the M104 series are very durable.

With high-speed modern "Mersi", a powerful "E420" series M119 with an eight-cylinder engine can take equals. The car is equipped with a 4.2-liter V8 power of 279 forces. This motor is perhaps the most reliable, but also voracious: with a restrained ride, each a hundred kilometers into the pipe flies twentytilite canister not the cheapest gasoline. In a word, the car is addressed to those who really love fast ride and can contain so high-speed car.

The dream of many collectors is the legendary "E500" - a reliable and incredibly fast sedan. Externally, "Supermers" is distinguished by separate headlights, bumpers of a different form with regular front "fontamilies", widely bloated front idilation wheel arches And a rich salon with sports seats. The rest is the classic and noble "one hundred and twenty-fourth." It is heavy duty (326 hp) Model with a 5-liter engine M117 V8 from the "five hundred" S-class reaches 100 km / h in just 6.1 s. The assembly of this model was led on Porsche conveyor. For particular hot heads, the E60 AMG version was offered with a 6-liter V8 with a capacity of 381 hp. And overclocking 5.4 seconds. But such very little even in Germany. In the traditions of "Mercedes-Benz" both models were supplied only by automatic boxes.

Also worth the attention diesel Mercedes E-class. The version of "E200 Diesel" at one time attracted buyers cheap. He cost even less than gasoline "E200"! However, the four-cylinder diesel is frankly noisy and produces a tangible vibration. The most popular due to the ratio "price / characteristic" was a 5-cylinder diesel. In the work it is much softer and quieter. The inline "six" volume of three liters was offered in two versions: atmospheric (136 hp) and turbocharging (147 hp). Cars with such motor engines and by themselves, and in service. The "six" works with almost no characteristic diesel terrain, solely gently. Finally, "EZ00 DIESEL" and "EZ00 Turbodiesel" are very high-speed and dynamic.

In 1995, Mercedes-Benz introduced the Class E Light Machines in the new body - W210 with 4 round headlights. "210th" was a worthy heir of the car series "124", which divided the world in the amount of 2.7 million new design of the front with as if separate round headlights (in fact they are combined into two block headlights of a complex form) Who leaves indifferent. "Eyesy Mercedes" inherited the main features of the corporate identity, which confirmed the unprecedented growth of European sales models in the next three years, such that many of its competitors in the highest sector of the market (F) had to be strongly sighted. The 210th series of sedans remains the most successful on the top of the middle class.

Like its predecessor with the 124th body, the E-class is a strong and reliable car. Impressive smoothness of this car. Advanced wheel suspension almost completely neutralizes the effects of road irregularities. For the first time on the machines of this class, rush steering. Among the innovation is a rain sensor, an outdoor air pollution sensor, Parktronic system. A year later, an "adaptive" 5-speed FRG with electronically controlled, allowing you to change the switching algorithm depending on the style of the ride.

For class E cars, more than 6400 options for performing individual wishes for design and technical Equipment. Among the additional equipment and accessories: children's seats, refrigerator, comfortable seats with ventilation, dynamic navigation system (DYNAPS), COMAND control and display system with an integrated radio tape recorder and navigation system, etc.

Initially, the E-class had a rather rich basic complete set, which included an electric car (windows-mirrors), adjustable in height of the front seat. For security reasons, the car was equipped with a window pillow of the Window-Bag security, dropped during a side impact in the form of a curtain between the front and rear racks; two-stage front safety pillows; inertial safety belts; Multifunctional steering, ABS, ESP. All this equipment was available regardless of the version of the execution and equipping the cabin, which were planned three: Classic, Elegance and Avantgarde. The cheapest of them is Classic, which is distinguished by the absence of skin and the minimum use of wood in the interior decoration, simple wheels, green tinting of glass and "low" central console - without armrest between front seats. But even this option is very representative. The trunk of the sedan, despite the large 520-liter volume, is also very convenient.

Elegance cars look more richly thanks to the chrome on the external handles of the doors and bumpers. Salon of this version flashes with a walnut tree. The steering wheel and the lever are covered with leather, which can be finished and seats. Wheel wheels are cast, ten-spin. Instead of rotating vents, air conditioning and "stove" on the center console, a modern microclimate control unit with a display and keys is already applied.

The most elite performance is Avantgarde. It possesses, so to speak, a sports bias. The salon is decorated with dark, almost black maple and leather. Special wheeled discs and practically mandatory xenon light give respect to the appearance. In addition, the execution of Avantgarde glass is toned not widespread green, but blue. True, it should be noted that the Avantgarde's low sports suspension does not best carry Russian roads.

Since 1997, all E-class machines began to install the BRAKE Assist system, which recognizes extreme braking and helps the driver to a minimum reduce the braking path. In addition, this system itself monitors malfunctions arising in the engine, electrician or transmission and reminds you to change the oil or brake fluid With the help of a light bulb " Check Engine»On dashboard. Even in the service book indicate that visits to the service station are produced at a periodicity of 15,000-22.000 km along the signal of this light bulb.

Since 1997, all-wheel drive versions of E-Class - "4Matic" (transmission "4x4" appeared in the program. This is the most complex transmission that combined the 5-speed "automatic" and the traction force control system - in the case of a bucking, it slows down the scrolling wheel, providing a better grip with an expensive. This 4MATIC transmission constantly smoothly redistributes the torque between the front and rear axle (with normal ride in the proportion of 33:66), and the interlocking intercirculation and inter-sieve differentials There is no, since they replaced the "smart" ETS system, which itself slows down the wheelchair due to the standard brake system.

For E-class, the widest range of engines are represented, which are divided into three groups. The first includes cost-effective gasoline and diesel engines with a working capacity of 2.0-2.7 l with a capacity of 115-170 hp. Machines with such engines have low fuel consumption and quite satisfy the needs of most E-class owners.

Another group includes more powerful 6-cylinder 2,8 and 3,2-liter motors, which, as a rule, work already with automatic 5-speed gearboxes. These engines allow the most fully to disclose the entire potential of the design embedded in the e-class. More modern engines appeared in 1997. These are not in line, and already V-shaped "six" with a volume of 2.4, 2.8 and 3.2 liters (170, 204 and 224 forces, respectively). V6 on average is 25% more easily than rigorous "six" of the previous generation, they are canceled balanced, and their work is practically not felt on the management bodies. Yes, and fuel consumption decreased compared to rigid fellows - in the city it will be about 13 liters. In the e-class, such popular models with "Universal" bodies also completed new V-shaped 6 cylinder engines (129-279 hp)

Third includes the most prestigious V-shaped "eights" with a working volume of 4.3 and 5.4 liters. Equipped with them models, perhaps, can be attributed to the representative. For a powerful "E420" with a 4,2-liter V8 with a capacity of 279 forces since 1997, the Germans increased the engine capacity by 100 "cubes", leaving unchanged power - for the increase in the already considerable torque. Middle fuel consumption of about 20 l / 100 km. The tuning studio "Mercedes" in 1996 released the model "E50 AMG", and a year later in 1997 in Frankfurt, an E 55 AMG modification was presented - the most powerful sports sedan. Major changes that were brought to the standard E-class masters AMG concerned engine improvement, suspension and car body.

So, the E50 AMG received a forced 5-liter V8 with a capacity of 347 forces. With such potential, the car accelerated to hundreds in 7.2 seconds, and the maximum speed was limited to the standard 250 km / h. The E55 AMG model possessed an even more impressive 5,4-liter "eight" power of 354. Therefore, overclocking until hundreds takes only 5.7 seconds, and the mighty torque (530 nm) literally throws the car forward even from 200 km / h. Externally, AMG cars are distinguished by plastic lining on the thresholds, lower bumpers, additional spoilers and special sports wheels. Clearance of sports E-class 2.5 cm less compared to the standard model. Chic salon of two-color leather business card creations AMG.

And in 1998, the "Baby" began to equip the new generation diesel engines with the COMMON Rail system (Mercedes with such motors are designated by the CDI index). The previously known E200CDI and E220CDI are preserved, but received more powerful engines in 115 and 143 hp. instead of the former 102 and 125 hp

From 1995 to 1999. More than 1 million W210 cars were released, most of which are operated in Europe. No wonder this model was and remains one of the standards of the business class. In the summer of 1999, the "Eagle" was subjected to modernization, over 1800 different changes were made to the design. There are new engines, transmissions, the equipment has changed. The extensive program of E-class models, by the beginning of 2000 included 27 basic complete sets. The external difference between the "new" machines from "old" - the form of a lower front with an integrated bumper, the edge of which reaches the middle of the headlights. Such a car is easy to learn from turning signs implanted in the outer mirrors, while the early version of "Flashing" is located on the front wings. Among the features of the E-class station wagon are a very spacious luggage compartment, the volume of which with a folded back seat reaches 1.97 m3. The ESP coursework system is installed as standard equipment on the ESP Mercedes. On all-wheel drive versions of 4Matic, there is no longer a traditional differential locking system, and the imitation of the blocking by braking the buxer wheels using the ABS.

Since 2000, the models are equipped with 270 CDI and 320 CDI engines. The program appeared all-wheel drive E430 4 Matic, the front wheels of which are connected, however, only when the rear is slipped. The most powerful sports sedan E55 AMG 4 Matic and the E55T Wagist AMG 4 Matic is distinguished by special design and magnificent high-speed qualities. At the end of 2001, the emergence of the E400 CDI model with the latest 4.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine V8 with a capacity of 250 hp

In November 2001, the production of W210 ceased. Modifications with the body wagon gathered until the beginning of 2003. The exact number of cars released with the Body W210-1350128. It is about 24% of the number of passenger Mercedes issued from 1995 to 2001. The significant event of November 2001 was the fact that a figure of 10 million sales of E-class cars was achieved in their entire history.

In January 2002, the premiere of the new E-class sedan (body type W211) took place. The car still "added" in size, and its appearance gained a more rapid look - a magnificent sculptural form of glass and steel. The highest level of comfort for both the driver and passengers corresponds to the same level of active and passive security.

Externally, the car retained the style of its predecessor: the same separate round headlights in front, only now they consist of several lamps hidden under one cap. The rear of the new E-Class is made in the Mercedes S-Class Executive Sedana style. The car's salon is now significantly more spacious thanks to an enlarged wheelbase, as well as a newly developed interior. Informative devices in the form of liquid crystal columns will report only the most necessary and relevant information, and the sound of the engine and the noise of urban streets will not disturb you thanks to almost perfect sound insulation.

Initially, the creators not only provided the E-class cars with a rich package, but also equipped the most innovative technique. Especially for E-class, a semi-active airmatic Dual Control air suspension was developed, which is equipped with a serial model E 500. It allows the car to "not notice" irregularities and soar over the road.

Sensotronic Brake Control (SBC) brake system takes care of passenger safety: automatically dries brake discs On a wet road and thanks to its advantages, optimizes the functions of the remaining ESP, ASR, ABS and BAS security systems. The computer calculates the necessary inhibition strength and purposefully distributes it on the wheels. In addition to technical research, it is proposed at will - multi-constructive seats with adaptation function to the dynamics of the Dynamic MultiContour movement. If necessary, can make the back and leg massage. It can be noted eight airbags (two front, four side for the front and rear passengers, Two side upper inflatable "curtains"), as well as automatic opening-closing of the trunk. As an additional equipment on will be installed new system Cruise control and corporate entertainment system Comand.

For the novelty there is a whole range of modern motors. To begin with, there will be proven gasoline and diesel engines with a working volume of 2.2-5.0 liters in the power range of 150-306 hp. 177-strong 2,4-liter engine and 3.2-liter motor power 224 horsepower. Later, this series added a five-liter V8 with a capacity of 306 "horses" from Mercedes S-Class. Diesel engines: 220 CDI with a capacity of 150 horsepower and 270 CDI, with a capacity of 177 horsepower. This set was replenished with a 197-strong engine 320 CDI, and from March 2003 also four-liter V8 with a capacity of 260 horsepower. All models (except E320 and E500) are equipped with either a mechanical 6-speed gearbox or a hydromechanical adaptive 5-speed "automatic".

Now the e-class has immediately received three new engines - gasoline and two diesel. Two of these new power aggregates You can call "budget", so are more economical. The first of the new engines is gasoline, a volume of 1.8-liters, the power of which is adjusted to 163 hp, thanks to the use of a mechanical supercharger. The maximum torque of this motor in 240HM is achieved in the range from 3,000 to 4,000 revolutions per minute. Mercedes E 200 Kompressor Consumes an 8.4-liter fuel per hundred kilometers, and its maximum speed reaches 230 km / h.

Another novelty is a four-cylinder turbodiel engine, with a direct fuel injection system. A 122-strong two-liter engine allows you to develop the maximum speed of 203 km / h. Wherein new engine Extremely economical - the average fuel consumption is 6.3-liters.

And the third novelty was another diesel engine, a 3.2-liter volume. Its capacity has been adjusted to 204 hp Up to one hundred km / h E-Class accelerates with such a motor in 7.7 seconds, and its maximum speed is 243 km / h.

The apotheosis of the engines is E 55 AMG, providing acceleration to 100 km / h in 4.7 sec. The "charged" sedan E-class, over which the Specialists of the AMG tuning studio have a 5.5-liter V8 engine, with a capacity of 476 horsepower, and its maximum speed is limited at 250 kilometers per hour. E 55 AMG serial! It is completed with a novelty of the global technical thought - a semi-active air-like Airmatic Dual Control. The unchanged of the car clearance is controlled by electronics. When turning the rotation at high speeds, the system automatically "pulls up" the suspension, reducing the amplitude of the transverse and longitudinal routing of the body.

In the fall of 2002, Mercedes E-Class received a system full drive 4Matic. While ordering the 4Matic system will be able to buyers only by gasoline versions E-Class, namely E240 with a 177-strong motor, E320 with a 224-strong and E500 with a 306-strong engine. All all-wheel drive versions of Mercedes E-Class are 10 millimeters above the basic models due to the higher body location over the road.

The last generation Mercedes E-Class model range can be replenished with several new modifications. Since 2003, buyers can purchase a wagon based on Mercedes E-Class. Its all-wheel drive version is already available. And not so long ago an AMG version wagon Mercedes-Benz E-class - E 55 AMG with a turbo video V8, which made it the most powerful universal in the world. The car accelerates to 100 km / h in just 4.8 seconds, while his predecessor was required to be 5.9 seconds. The maximum speed of it is limited to 250 km / h.

Limousine should appear in the E-Class model range - the version of the sedan is elongated by 50 centimeters. This car will receive luxurious equipment and will be designed for those who want to have a representative car, but not yet ready to pay a tangible amount for a similar version of Mercedes S-Class.

Finally the last novelty In the series Mercedes E-Class will be the four-door coupe. This car will appear in 2005 and get a slightly different body design.

In 2006, world premiere was held at the International Motor Show in New York updated Mercedes.-Benz e-class, which sets new standards and sets new landmarks. During the next modernization, the car acquired new engines, sports suspension and additional security tools. Although by and large changes external view Not so much, the designers have been well refreshing the appearance of the model. Among the new in appearance is a changed form of bumpers, radiator grille, thresholds and rear-view mirrors.

A stylish steering wheel with four knitting appeared inside the cabin and the climate control control panel has changed, which has now entered the basic package of equipment. In total, buyers offered 29 variants of the model - 16 modifications of the sedan and 13 - wagon.

IN standard equipment The updated Mercedes E-Class entered the Security system Pre Safe, which debuted on the S-class in 2002. As soon as the sensors installed on the car, "will suspect" the risk of collision, the backs of chairs and head restraints automatically occupy the correct position, and the pretensioners of seat belts are triggered. Neck Pro headrests with sensory sensors, protect the driver's head and front passenger. Flashing stops - standard equipping of an updated E-class. The driver of the next car reacts to a flashing by 0.2 with faster than constantly burning light. Plus the innovative system of "intelligent" lighting Intelligent Light System. The headlights now automatically change the intensity and direction of the light beam depending on the speed. For the most active drivers, the DIRECT CONTROL package is designed, with a sharper steering and hard suspension. In general, in a car, almost 2,000 items were renovated or upgraded.

Updated E-Class Completed Ten various engines, six of which were a significant upgrade. The diesel line consists of E 200 CDI, E 220 CDI and E 320 CDI, and starting from the fall of 2006 to the cars supplied in the USA, E 320 Bluetec was installed - the most pure, according to the company, the diesel engine in the world. Bluetec, in addition, consumes 20-40% of fuel less than gasoline motors of the same power. The power of the most modest version, E 200 Kompressor, increased to 184 hp, and a 5.5-liter V8 with a capacity of 388 hp appeared on the top model, previously installed on the S-Class. E 500 accelerates to 100 km / h in just 5.3 sec.

"Charged" option from AMG Atelier received an atmospheric V8 with a capacity of 514 hp, which is 38 horses more than the predecessor E 55 AMG.

The fourth generation of E-class W212 was shown in early January 2009 at the Detroit Motor Show. From the elegant, sophisticated image of the predecessor, created six years ago, under the beginning of the former chief designer Peter Pfeiffer, there was no trace. The car has retained his "quadrupleness", but the headlights are now not oval (as it was in the previous generations), but diamond. Slowing faces, as the new chief designer Gordon Vagerner emphasizes, is a memoir about the Mercedes of the model W120 / 121 fifties on the nickname Ponton, the E-class predecessor.

The Mercedes E-Class car traditionally sets standards competitors in its class. Each detail, from the interior decoration materials to numerous security systems, speaks of the high status of the car. The sedan has gone significantly in the basic parameters. The length increased by 14 mm (up to 4868 mm), the wheelbase was stretched by 20 mm (up to 2874), the width rose by 32 mm (up to 1854 mm), and the height decreased by 13 mm (up to 1470).

The premiere of the station wagon took place at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2009. In comparison with the predecessor new Universal Long to 50 millimeters, and the volume of the luggage compartment with the folded sections of the second row will remain the same - 1950 liters. In addition, the tailgate of the trunk and a soft curtain that hides from extraneous eyes the contents of the compartment, in all versions, including the basic, will receive a servo.

In the family of 212 e-grade, a compartment and a convertible appeared again. E-class coupe (Cup code C207) was presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 2009. This is the second coupe in the E-class family after W124 body. In the basic configuration E 220 CDI BlueEfficiency is the most streamlined serial compartment in the world, having a CX total 0.24. Collected coupe at the factory in Bremen.

Mercedes-Benz E-class in the body of a cabriolet (body code A207) was represented by the public at the North American International Auto Show in 2010. This is the second convertible in the E-class family after W124 body. The convertible is equipped with a fabric soft-folding roof, which is folded or opens in 20 seconds, and this can be done either from the roof control buttons from the cabin or the button on the key. The roof mechanism is ordered from Karmann. According to the assurances of the Mercedes-Benz, the roof is designed for 20,000 folding cycles. Convertible is equipped with Airscarf and Aircap systems. Airscarf - brings warm air to the drivers and front passenger's necks. And when activating AIRCAP, the spoiler from the top of the windshield and the wind screen behind the head restraints are put on rear seatswhich remove air flow when the car moves, so that in the cabin quiet and windlessly.

In the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, an elongated 14 cm version of the sedan was represented. The car will receive the index "L", its length is 5012 mm, and the wheelbase is 3014 mm.

The interior is designed in the spirit of C-class and GLK: the same angular central console, also the architectural solution of the dashboard. In the design of the interior, expensive skin was used on the chairs, metal fittings, high-quality plastic and even invisible fibers, pouring amber glow from under the lining on the doors and Torpedo. Serial seats with their embossed soft upholstery provides high level Comfort with long crossings and optimal lateral support even with a very sporty driving style. As an option for the driver and front passenger, dynamic multi-constructive seats are offered. They are separately adjustable air chambers make it possible to optimally adapt the contour of the seat to the individual features of the shape of the seated. Side supporting protrusions are automatically adjustable and dynamically, depending on the nature of the car movement. The depth of the seat cushion, side support protrusions and support for lumbar deflection are configured pneumatically. Additional comfort will ensure the function of dynamic massage of seven zones and headrests increased comfort.

In the back of the cabin reigns the spacious, which is especially felt on separate seats of high comfort, which are offered as an additional equipment. In addition, these seats are equipped with heated and head restraints of high comfort. For passengers of the second row, sunscreen visors are also provided on rear doors and central armrest with two built-in beverage holders.

Interestingly, if the cars with four-cylinder engines are the levers of the five-speed "automaton" and a manual transmission are located on the central tunnel, then the more expensive versions with the "six" and seven-step "machines" 7G-Tronic have a selector lever on the steering column.

The serial equipment includes the recognition system of the ATTENTION Assist driver's fatigue, which determines the appearance of signs of the driver's weight in the manner of driving and begins to feed warning signals. In general, Mercedes-Benz E-Class 2009 went to start with a number of innovative solutions: full automatic braking in the event of a direct threat of a collision, the adaptive heading control system. The standard Mercedes E 212 configuration includes an electronic security system (ESP) and airbags. The body with an increase in 30% rigidity by 75% consists of high-strength steel varieties.

The range of power aggregates admires: some diesel versions - five: E 200 CDI, 220 CDI, 250 CDI, 350 CDI and 350 BLUETEC. The first three diesel versions are equipped with the same four-cylinder engine with double serial turbocharged, but in three options for forsing: 136 hp, 170 and 204. Modifications E 350 CDI and E 350 Bluetec are also distinguished by the return: less environmentally friendly version CDI is more powerful - 231 Strength vs. 211. Another five gasoline: E 200 CGI, 250 CGI, 350 CGI, E 350 4Matic and E 500. Two younger unpopular engines V6 2.5 and 3.0, and with them and version E230 and E280 disappeared from the gamma.

The front McPherson racks and the rear "multi-dimensional" are adapted to use variable resistance shock absorbers: or "passive", with amplitude-dependent characteristics, or electronically controlled. And the latter on the e-class first work in a pair with a pneumatic suspension: it is standardly installed on the version with the V8 motor and for extra charge - on six-cylinder machines.

The highest security measures, reliability, jewelry handling and dynamics are an integral qualities of a real car, which is Mercedes-Benz E-class.

In January 2013, an updated family of Mercedes-Benz E-Class was presented at the Detroit Motor Show. After restyling, the car received a number of fundamentally new stylistic solutions. The main thing of which, the fact that the four-piece headlights characteristic of E-Class went into the past, now the head optics is a single block headlight. By the way, completely LED headlights of the head light are in the list of options. The changes in the front part are not limited to the new headlights. The Germans also redoned the hood and front bumper. The back of the modernized car due to the modified rear wings and the LED lanterns of the new form looks more elongated and elegant. More sport versions of the E-class will receive a large nameplate, mounted in the radiator grille, while basic models Go with a classic "sight" on the hood. The body color is offered in 2 non-metallic enamels, namely "calcite and black", as well as 10 metalliacs.

There are not so many changes in the interior, but they are noticeable enough. Restyled versions received a new design dashboard on which there are three dials, an on-board computer screen is located in the central dial. Otherwise, the central console was issued on which the stylish analog clock is now bangible. Among the interior innovations, it is also worth noting a multifunctional steering wheel, which can be 2, 3 or 4-spoke, depending on the preferences of the buyer. In addition, an analog clock appeared in the cabin. For the interior decoration, the highest quality and expensive materials are proposed, including aluminum and real tree. The volume of the trunk is about 540 liters, when the second row is addition, the volume increases to 1,220 liters.

The line of force aggregates, as before, is represented by gasoline, diesel and hybrid motors. The base gasoline motor was assigned a 184-strong 2 liter unit for the E200 version. Line of diesel engines starts with a capacity of 2.1 liters with a capacity of 136 hp For E200 CDI. The novelty will be the E400 version, which will receive gasoline V6 with a turbocharger with a capacity of 333 horsepower. But this engine Winks to the range of power units in the fall of 2013. The flagship will remain E500 with a 408-strong V8. All engines meet high ecology standards and demonstrate a modest "appetite". A pair of motors to choose from may make a mechanical six-speed gearbox or "Automatic" 7G-Tronic Plus for seven positions.

Separate attention deserves the rich equipment equipment by electronic assistants. Electronic assistants that are endowed with an updated E-Class are linked to a single solution that received the name Intelligent Drive. One of the main information providers for electronics will be a stereo chamber located in the area of \u200b\u200bthe intra-alone mirror, which is able to track what is 500 meters occurring at a distance of 500 m. Based on this data and on the testimony of additional radars, the active cruise control systems will function, tracking and saving compliance monitoring His strip, pedestrian tracking system, which can start preventive braking to avoid a collision, and the insurance system from the near the back. In addition, the family will receive adaptive headlights of the head light, the active parking assistant, the chamber of the circular review and the road sign tracking system.

Good should be replaced with the best, especially if it is one of Mercedes -Benz models. And even quite a successful E-class W 211, who defended the honor of the brand in the upper-middle segment, is outdated over time, and in 2009 the company released a new "ECHA". No one was surprised that she became larger and more comfortable - shocked, first of all, the design concept. The departure from biodide in favor of chopped forms A la W 124 was not all ready for such a turn of events.

The predecessor of our today's hero, Mercedes in the 211st body, received the main criticism for explicitly reducing the quality of the manufacture, an increased amount of failures and a small resource of a number of nodes. Many brand fans associated this fact with an unsuccessful union with Chrysler and by them technological patterns.

In the photo: Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI (W212) "2009-12

In particular, the SBC system, which was put up to restyling models, the quality of motors, the quality of the gearboxes after restyling and the quality of the color of the bodies after restyling. It would seem criticized very carefully, but the new Mercedes inherited from ancestor and engines, and gearboxes, although in some upgraded versions.

However, the advantages of the model had enough. First of all, comfort has improved through the use of a new active suspension, improved aerodynamics and a new mechatronic salon. In addition, the passport has significantly decreased and that the main thing real flow Fuel due to the transition mainly on the engines with direct injection of fuel, seven-step automatic transmission, and also decreased aerodynamic resistance. Safety took care of particular: among the options a night vision system, radar for emergency braking system and cruise control, control system dead zones, Smart airbags, side support adjustments. Well, the body, of course, became even stronger.

Restyling 2013 was remembered to many exactly what the hand would simply not rise his facelifting. The appearance was redesamed very thoroughly: the car received a new head optics, and with the help of small strokes the appearance was transformed incredibly - from the coarse and faceted shell, the car turned into a sample of an elegant style with an admixture of high-tech. The salon was also referred to: it became more color and smooth lines, and also abandoned the gloomy gray plastic and the massive steering wheel.

The technique also worked thoroughly - the line of gasoline engines was replaced by a new one in 2011, removing fairly outdated and frankly unsuccessful motors Series M271 and M272. After restyling, the five-speed boxes of the 722.6 series were almost finally replaced for seven-step 722.9, and in 2014, the E350 BlueTech was also put on the newest "nine". LEDs settled in the optics, but the night vision system from the range of options was removed. In this form, the model was made up to 2016, when she had a completely new car in the body W 213, which became much more interactive, economical and, perhaps even more comfortable.

As for reliability, the explicit reduction of the number of failures has not happened, and the price of operation even increased, despite the children's, in general, age. I propose to figure it out in this situation a little more.

Body and Salon

The oldest cars are at the moment approaching the age of age. It is still too early to talk about some punzes in anti-corrosion protection, the cars are painted well, and the traces of corrosion can be found only with a very attentive inspection. The minimum disorders of the suture sealant on the panels of the thresholds and the trunk with the barely noticeable traces of rust - undoubtedly a bad sign. There are such defects regularly, but so far they do not cause any special problems. And most often they are associated with "shock loads" - primarily exploitation in hot summer, salted winter, diagonal skews and races of killed roads.

Explicit corrosion in the places of seams or on the edges of the arches and the thresholds occurs quite rarely, unless, of course, the car did not attend a serious accident with the replacement of panels to non-original or serious work on digitizing damaged elements. By and large, if you notice corrosion, then you can not watch the car: it is the consequences or accident, or very tight operation, all other problems at such a childhood still do not show yourself.

Well, if you look far into the future, look for a car with flawlessly whole suture sealant and apply an extra layer of anticorre on the bottom - protection looks weak, despite the large amount of plastic, and the internal cavities need protection, the experience of past generations E-class says that it is better to do this right away.

It is recommended to clean the "Aquarium" - niches under the windshield. Streams are small and quickly polluted by the residues of the leaves - the body from this is usually nothing threatened, but there will be a lot of problems on the electrical part, and there will be a lot of problems. Rubber seals dried after three to five years, and the outdoor coverage of the cabin will be worst further.

On the conditions of operation, the brackets of the radiator and a variety of smallers under the hood will be told. On the machines that spend the night in a wet underground garage or in a snowdrift on the street, light corrosion will be on many nodes and fasteners of "Podkapotka" - this is a feature of many fresh and expensive cars.

A large number of plastic parts on the bottom and their price can play a cruel joke. Even if the body's metal is flawless, the round sum of money may be needed to bring the car in perfect condition. Aerodynamic panels are easily damaged motor compartment, Sanders (on the front there was an revitalized campaign) and in general the entire lower plastic, including the lining of the suspension levers. If the M271 series motor is installed, the most common on these cars, and it flows the oil glass, then the plastic of the engine compartment is most likely in very poor condition even by car 2012-2013.

Seating chrome, handles of doors and leashes of janitors - trouble of cars from Moscow and St. Petersburg, road chemistry quickly kills all decorative coatings.

On the car with a panoramic hatch in the risk area of \u200b\u200bthe guides, they are polluted and creaked. If you do not pay attention to it, you can burn the drive motor or break the rollers and levers of the system. And the very first rain will increase the number of problems at times. Drainage in panoramic hatch, by the way, is clogged much faster than that of a simple. It is worth blowing every year and it is necessary to do it very carefully - the tubes are attached, as it would be softer to say, very weakly, easily flourished when exposed to compressed air, after which it is necessary to remove the hatch mechanism entirely and put the tubes on the clamp.

Optics before restyling that the front is that the rear, quickly loses hermeticity and sweats. And the ignition blocks of xenon headlights and control blocks are also gaining moisture. In general, with races on the puddles and washing of the engine compartment, it is necessary to be very neat, it is better to use water for this, but special cleaners. Electronic blocks are enough here.

After restyling, the optics began better, in any case the front headlights for fogging are not inclined, but the beautiful "ticks" of the LED lights can go out. Their repair is already mastered, but most of the services will offer to replace the whole headlight. Machines with LED closest light other troubles: "Eternal" LEDs in fact are withstanding only a couple of years, usually lose the luminosity they are in summer, in traffic jams. It is strongly recommended to use only DRL in such conditions, and not near.

The rear LED lights are not only blinded by the "footsteps" standing behind in a traffic jam, but also suffer from the gradual refusal of the LEDs - the reason is usually in the oxidation of the board and leakage of the lantern. Officially, he is not collapsible, but the dremel creates miracles, it is often enough to put the power connector inside into place, and look at the price of a new headlight ...

The loss of washer caps and the breakdown of the nozzles themselves are another flaw, the caps can be considered consumable, and if they put Chinese, then a month can "leave" several pieces. If the mirrors creak when folding, then carefully inspect the mounting brackets: the crust of oxides on aluminum hints to the fact that it is desirable to still examine the body for corrosion.

Machine salon is saturated with a variety of servo drives and electronics. There is a wiring everywhere, control modules to everyone in the world, and everything is very carefully and difficult. Machines to restyling as a whole look gloomy, but the quality of the salon materials in the basic equipment, oddly enough, better than the restyling, and expensive skin is not always more than the cheap leather inexpensive versions.

But when running for "hundred" surrenders and leathes, and the skin - the driver's seat begins to be covered by a network of cracks. In general, the quality of the salon is very high: a few unsuccessful elements like a stealless automatic transmission levers, the buttons of the steering wheel and the seat control buttons only emphasize how carefully the remaining parts are made. Of the serious minuses, it is possible to note only thermal sensitivity - at low temperatures, the cabin begins to grow, especially on restyled models, will restore him and suspension. Again, after 2013, the release of reviews have a slightly worse sound insulation, but maybe it is simply more noisy engines of the new generation create a similar effect.

The Command multimedia system sums up relatively rarely. Most often failures are associated with the module rear cameraIt is connected directly to the "head" of the device and with CD changer. A few more problems delivered abnormal firmware with Russification and new navigation for machines from Europe, such as often works unstable.

Multiple problems for relatively fresh cars? But pay attention, exploit "E-shki" to slaughter. They work both corporate machines, and "Person" in those who drive himself and does not consider it expensive limousine.

Electronics and electrics

In addition to the complexity of problems minimum. It breaks not so often, but if breaking ... if you do not bite, do not discharge the batteries, monitor the serviceability of the generator, then the entire complex electronic filling works stable. Of the serious troubles, it is possible to recall except the piezo-forming and a motor control unit OM651, it is diesel 2.2. Nozzles died, the block changed with them, but also more a new version The control unit sometimes loses the nutrition of the nozzles. In general, electronics from Delphi showed itself in the best way. After the warranty period, all this changes extremely reluctantly, check when buying.

Electronic blocks The engine compartment often suffer from leakage, especially the ignition blocks and headlights. Incinual access system is sensitive to strong interference, the failures happen too often, and besides, it can tritely discharge the battery literally per day-other, giving out false responses. Otherwise, it is necessary only to remember that all servo drives, displays and touch panels have a limited resource, and besides, it is quite fragile things. And performed by Mercedes also expensive. There are very few machines that, when diagnosing, show the complete absence of errors and failures in the operation of actuators.

Brakes, Pendants and Steering

The brake system fully complies with the standards of the brand: high quality of all components and excellent work. A little alarms a small resource of disks and pads, but this is a consequence of the active work of stabilization systems, drying brake discs, and the mass of the car is rather big, under two tons.

The suspension on the W 212 is famous for comfort and good knowledge, to a run of 70-100 thousand kilometers, they withstand almost everything, even with 18-inch discs. The secret is that in front now is not a double chamber, but an ordinary MacPherson, it is easier and more reliable. Rear suspension Seriously processed, and it better withstands the mass of new machines - the old variants of multi-dimensions were constructively different from the suspension of the machines in the body W 201 thirty years ago. Here are only electronic-managed shock absorbers here in stock configuration, which significantly increases costs in case of wear or serious damage, and the electronics has a finite resource.

Pneumatic suspension became noticeably stronger, once again improved the protection against road dirt, pipelines and electronics were more reliable, including all sensors. The "Pneuma" resource is stable more than 150 thousand kilometers, but it is rather necessary to measure in years, because the wear of elements is largely related to the age of cylinders.

The electric power steering wheel does not deliver problems, it was put on cars with gasoline engines of the M274, M276 series and some diesel. But the pump of ordinary GUR on the M272 and M271 resource does not differ, the high load on the node is affected when using a wide rubber. Rake resource, steering and tips are quite large - tips and thrust need to be checked and change closer to one hundred thousand mileage kilometers, and the rake usually does not require replacement with a small backlash and during runs for three hundred thousand kilometers. SERVOTRONIC SYSTEMS (MERCEDES is called "parametric steering", no matter how surprisingly, extremely rare.

Transmission

Mechanical boxes and transmission itself are arranged for a rarity reliably, benefit worked for years. And even the all-wheel drive transmission is characterized by a resource and reliability. Unless the elements of the front gearbox and the drive of the front axle can bring up to hundreds of thousands of kilometers during runs. The handout in the risk group is only on all-wheel drive machines with top three-liter diesel and AMG-versions.

With automatic boxes, everything is slightly complicated. Until 2011, most of the four-cylinder cars were equipped with an old and very reliable five-speed box of the 722.6 series, which has long been debugged and improved. By the way, the latest firmware for this unit is dated as much as 2014, the wear of the GDT lining is slightly decreased with them due to the less active operation of blocking to the "cold" and increasing the reserve "adaptability". According to modern standards, a very reliable unit, with a resource of mechanics and a hydraulic block of about 250-300 thousand kilometers, without "child problems". With a timely replacement of the GDT blocking overlay during runs 150-200 thousand kilometers and a frequent replacement of special hassle oil does not deliver up to the moment of wear of the main friction, bushings and planetary gears. On the E200 versions, this automatic transmission can be found until 2013.

The automatic transmission of the 722.9 series, it is 7G -tronic, which was installed on six-pattter versions of the machines since 2009 and the remaining cars since 2011, it cannot boast of such work and trouble free. The main difficulties were eliminated at restyled W 211, but also a lot of problems had to share. And the first 7gtronic + options, optimized under the "Start-Stop" modes, also added failures. Failures of hydroblocks, wiring and overheating pursue the box until now. And perhaps, this automatic transmission is one of the most serious disadvantages of post-post-winning machines.

However, the advantages of her, of course, there is: fuel consumption in machines with seven-step automatic transmission surprisingly small - in combination with gasoline "fours" can be less than eight liters, and with diesel om651 - even less than six liters. It is strongly recommended to replace the oil every 30-40 thousand mileage kilometers and installing an external automatic radiator, as well as removing the thermostat of the box.

Since 2014, Bluetech's diesel models began to put the 9G -tronic automatic transmission. Again the many "baby problems" revealed, but at the moment they are eliminated under warranty, and there are almost no difficulty in diesel engines. With such automatic transmission, fuel consumption is still slightly reduced. In the "track" modes, diesel consumption falls below three liters per hundred, and this is a two-ton machine.

Engines

Dorestayling motors are basically "Hit" recent years In the face of the motor M271 EVO volume of 1.8 liters with a compressor, as well as engines of the M272 series. By the time of launching W 212 most The problems of the engines were eliminated, although M271 is still characterized by a low resource of the timing chain and stars, and M272 still periodically flashes the intake manifold and dies with cylinders.

More all the motors of this generation too often suffer from oil leaks: an unfortunate "glass" of the filter is flowing on M271, and the heat exchanger also has a heat exchanger on M272. Take a look at the problems of these motors on: in fact, the same complexity, but the age of the machines is less. But taking into account the design of the design, serious problems arise only if it is persistently to ignore all warnings.

The main trouble M272 is a small resource of the timing chain - retreated. Motors of later releases have a resource of this node on average about 200 thousand kilometers, and besides, the chain rarely jumps immediately. At M271, the chain needs to be followed in both, often it stretches and jumps under run less than 100 thousand kilometers, but again, warns about wear with specific noise in advance. Since the runs for 200 thousand kilometers are found not so often, then there are few complaints about these engines, and they are mainly connected with M271. Motors of the M273 series are significantly less common, but in fact they do not differ from M272 in operation, except for the cylinder jacies on them can be found more often.

A lot of diesel engines of the OM651 series in a variety of versions of forcing and nutrition. Until 2011, the aggregates were supplied with piezo-forming, which were prone to leaks and failures. This often led to the hydraulic man and roasting the pistons. The problems escaped only the junior motor version, which was equipped with ordinary nozzles. Within the framework of the response campaign, the nozzles on all engines after 2011 changed to electromagnetic, and the injection control unit was changed.

The design of the motor is quite complex, it has many points that require attention, but the quality of execution is very good, and in most cases failures occur due to the fault of the fuel equipment, the intake manifold dampers, the thermostat, the EGR valve, squeeze filter and sensors.

Turbine is usually dying to run in 200-250 thousand kilometers. Approximately with the same mileage you need to replace the MRR mechanism. Another unpleasant feature of the motor is the tendency to "biphant" injectors. Specialized services are usually able to cope with this whip, but still the owners recommend preventive removal and cleaning at least once a year. The little things like failover coupling and ars-valve on machines with small runs almost do not occur.

Diesel V 6 OM642 series are considered one of the most reliable Mercedes -Benz recent years. Very resource, with very reliable fuel equipment - he deservedly appreciates those who want power and stability. Problems are mainly clean, and no more.

On machines after 2011 began to appear new motors. There are significantly fewer feedback on them, but a number of regularities can be distinguished.

The M272 series engines that came to shift do not have problems with a piston group and with collectors, but on the Timing of the Timing Campaign - changed the calibers and hydrochlorians of the chains, during small runs the chain rushed. Motors ranked 276.8 with a sequence number to 276.8xx 30 001280 and 276.9 with a sequence number to 276.9xx 30 406602. In addition, the pressure of the oil pump is too small, and there are often cases of damage to the liners and crankshafts. Piezohoroforsinki and on these engines show themselves no matter, but so far they are changed within the framework of warranty repairs.

The row fours of the M274 series received an aluminum block, a delicate piston group and turbocharging. Only a variant of 2.0 liters in two powers of the forcing was installed on the E-class. The engine showed itself well, but the incidents of the piston group are encountered, the motor very badly tolerates the slightest overheating, and besides, sometimes inclined to "Macely" in a very childhood.

What to choose?

The cost of operation of premium business class cars has grown noticeably for the last decade, and it is necessary to get used to it. You wanted consumption like solaris and dynamics like 911? Get, but you still have to pay - not for fuel, as for repairs and maintenance. Now these cars are mostly pleasing their owners. They are firmly made, but they have enough nodes with a limited service life and frank "pitfalls" like chains on M271 and 7G -Tronic automatic transmission. All of them can deliver a lot of trouble even the most empty owners of machines when complying with the "factory" maintenance intervals.

With a diesel engine, the E-class can even claim the title of very economical in operation of the car, especially if you have a big run, and the roads are smooth. Comfort and security undoubtedly belong to the best features of the model, here it is opening up with any new car, which can be purchased for comparable amounts, and believe me, no "strong" "Japanese" will not compare with it.

But expenses will definitely be - small at first, the big then, and how much of them will have to your wallet, it is difficult to predict.
