Dodik's 2013 E350 Wagon

[dodik]

Figured I'd start a new thread, after 13 years in a subaru I wanted something different as there isn't a Suby that appeals to me at the moment.
I knew I didn't want an SUV anymore, cause being tall and sitting up high creates this pendulum effect that gets tired really fast. So out of options currently available there are only two full size wagons on the market Outback and E-Class, all others are just too small, or not really wagons.

It has some interesting options, like dynamic seats, headlights that turn with the steering wheel, vented seats, real leather, and a 3rd row seats. Already got it tinted and a couple more mods will be done in the future. Right now im enjoying the extra power and better mpg

Greeting From another Benz owner. Giving you heads up. If you experience the motor shutting off while driving. Rule of the thumb it's the Crank Shaft Sensor. If you notice that the transmission will slip into Neutral while in drive. It's the conductor plate (speed sensor) and pilot bushing.

Thanks for the comments guys, I hope dont experience those issues but at least Ill know where to look.

This is a sexy wagon������

[dodik]

yeah, there aren't too many full size wagons left in the US,
over past week installed front and rear dash cams, and hardwired my radar detector.

Test drove one of these, a diesel with an AMG pack though - these things are massive, by NZ standards anyway.

I wouldn't have expected those wheels to look as good as they do. Nice choice!

Picked up a different E350 over the weekend.
It sat for a couple of years at a large fleet lot, after a mile of driving managed to burn out pads as caliper locked up, and then limped it home for 80 miles. Already changed oil and got it on the lift for small odd things to tinker with.
Waiting on new plugs, coils, belt, air filter.

ps. let me know if pics don't work.

also got a 77 Cadillac Fleetwood barn find with a barn lol. if anyone wants it let me know
