Summary

The Mercedes-Benz E 350 BlueTEC 9G-Tronic W212 (2015) is a luxury sedan acclaimed for its powerful V6 diesel engine performance, high efficiency and advanced 9G-Tronic transmission, which offers exceptionally smooth shifts and contributes to economy. Experts point to its refined ride and ability to cover long distances in comfort. However, the OM642 V6 diesel engine has had known issues such as oil cooler oil leaks and intake manifold failures. The 9G-Tronic transmission, while excellent, has had occasional reports of rough shifts in 1-2 gears when cold or rare problems with the control module. For informed buyers looking for a luxury, economical and high-performance car, this model remains a strong choice.
