The M112 350 was only in the 03-05 ML.  The w211 was E320 up to 05 still with the 3.2 M112, in 06 they went to 350 with the 272 with the balance shaft issues. On 11/26/2021 10:12 AM, dan penoff.com via Mercedes wrote: He’s safe with any E320 or potentially E350 up to 2005. There is a variant

He’s safe with any E320 or potentially E350 up to 2005. There is a variant that’s an E350 used in the MLs and possibly other models that is the M112, which can be verified through the engine number using the VIN. Avoid any E350 branded model from 2006-2008. I have had several, with two still

It’s simply amazing how reliable the 112 or 113 with the 722.6 is. Almost as great as a 606 with that 722.6. Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 26, 2021, at 7:58 AM, Buggered Benzmail via Mercedes > wrote: > > Great cars, solid engine, 722.6 tranny, fairly reliable. > > —FT > > Sent from my

M112 is a very bulletproof engine with good longevity and low maintenance costs/requirements. Know issues? Probably the only thing I can think of is the breather getting leaky, which is a once in a 100k issue. -D > On Nov 25, 2021, at 11:42 PM, OK Don via Mercedes > wrote: > > Our son is

It does have a balance shaft but I've not heard of any design/manufacturing defects with it in that model engine. The ones to watch out for are the M272/273 engines. Allan On Thu, Nov 25, 2021, at 11:42 PM, OK Don via Mercedes wrote: > Our son is going to look at a 2002 E320 4matic tomorrow. I
