Summary

The Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 4MATIC (2010) is rated by experts for its powerful M272 V6 engine, excellent driving comfort and high construction quality, especially in the interior. This 4MATIC variant also offers good capabilities in all conditions. The main downsides are high fuel consumption (18 MPG EPA), dated interior design (pre-facelift), and the relatively low torque of the V6 petrol engine. Common problems reported with this M272 engine include balance shaft problems in early models, intake manifold defects, and oil leakage from the oil cooler.
