Expert reviews
Summary
The Mercedes-Benz E 350 CGI BlueEfficiency W212 (2010) is a luxury sedan rated for excellent performance from its direct injection V6 engine and 7G-Tronic transmission. It offers a smooth, refined and dynamic ride, being one of the most desirable options in the W212 range. However, the M272 engine is known for problems with the balance shaft, intake manifold air valves, and oil leaks. Also, W212 models may exhibit chassis rust and possible electronic issues such as sensors or problems with the 7G-Tronic gearbox (plate conductor, rough first gear display when cold). For informed buyers who appreciate a luxury car, high performance and are willing to invest in maintenance, this remains a solid classic.
