Summary

The Mercedes-Benz ML 350 BlueTEC (W164 Phase-II) represents the cleanest and most powerful diesel version with the V6 OM642 engine. By adding BlueTEC technology with deNOx catalyst, this model meets the strict Euro 6 standard, making it one of the first SUVs of this size to do so. It offers high torque of 540 Nm, which is ideal for driving with heavy loads or in difficult terrain. Care should be taken with AdBlue system maintenance (SCR) and NOx sensors, in addition to the usual OM642 engine problems with oil leaks.
