People seem to forget these things produce over 500 hp naturally
aspirated, how many engines do that? They are not built to last
forever, they are built for high performance. Head bolts are a well
known weakness/flaw on they first of the model but they are only bolts
at the end of the day. Yes, and these bolts can be replaced, not
exactly cheap I might add. I think it was the first engine to be
designed by AMG and not actual MB; even some 2013 and 2014 have issues.
I personally would avoid this motor, especially the early years. The
6.2-liter, naturally-aspirated V-8 (codenamed M156) was the first
engine wholly developed and produced by AMG and it's one of our
favorites. Tuned to put out over 500 hp with an addicting sound track,
it's widely regarded as an engine that can do no wrong. M156 i'm sure
of it.

What have been common problems in the GLC300 series? I have run flats
on my 2018 GLC and I have never experienced such a harsh ride in my
life! Potholes make the car go sideways! RFT with standard steel
suspension. I like how it drives most of the time but wish the car
handled better. Thanks Charming for the suggestion. I think dynamic
select only alters suspension if you have air suspension. I will give
it regardless though. Well, they may be nuissances but I have better
things to do with my time than to be at the dealer and its not a low
end vehicle. My husband drives a 2004 Camry (and hes proud of it) and
he finds it funny that his car has only been in the shop for oil
changes in the past 3 years. Further, its going to feel more than just
a nuisance once my 4 year warranty is up and Ill be paying for my
monthly visits.

German brand automaker officially presented new SUV - 2017
Mercedes-Benz GLS550 on November 4, which will update be renamed from
GL to GLS by the company. Adding the letter S will provide a rich list
of options and great appearance along with sedan, representative of
S-Class. World debut of 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS550 will be at the motor
show in Los Angeles. Initially, just a few months ago, Mercedes
Corporation introduced new indices for a number of their cars. So now
the whole model range of SUV names begin with the characters "GL",
which complements the letter of the corresponding class. For example,
ML-Class facelift became GLE and GLC is a former GLK. 2017
Mercedes-Benz GLS550 will be equipped with Dynamic Select System that
provides an opportunity for the driver to choose the appropriate option
for GLS SUV. Well, the updated Mercedes-Benz GLS is a leader among all
SUVs produced by the company and S-Class sedans. By the way, we can not
exclude the possibility that more expensive and luxurious GLS version
under the name of Maybach sub-brand will come to the market in the near
future. With regard to updates in the exterior of 2017 Mercedes-Benz
GLS550, they are very few but important. The novelty will differ from
its predecessor with painted radiator grille, where brand logo is
located. In addition, designers included new head optics, restyled
front and rear bumper, some forms of tail lights and a new set of steel
wheels. The final point could be 2 new body colors. Regarding the power
units, which 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS550 will be equipped completely the
same engines as the previous, although each of them adds 20-30 HP as
engineers assert. Now gasoline V-shaped 6-cylinder base engine produces
362 HP and 500 Nm of torque. Diesel V6 power unit now produces 260 HP.

Piloting the redesigned 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL450 feels like driving a
massive bank vault 鈥?solid, quiet and heavy. And if you鈥檙e not
careful with the option sheet, you鈥檒l need your own bank vault to pay
for it. Certain vehicles are made with specific markets in mind. The
Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is one of them 鈥?an expensive luxury SUV
designed for the American market, built in Alabama and aimed at wealthy
Americans鈥?love for big, fancy trucks. Larger than international
luxury SUVs like the Land Rover Range Rover but smaller than domestic
models like the Cadillac Escalade, the GL-Class has been a hit for
Mercedes-Benz both in the U.S. AMG trim. It鈥檚 the big papa of the
Mercedes-Benz SUV lineup, slotting above the midsize ML-Class, which
itself sits above the compact GLK-Class. The fourth SUV in the Benz
lineup is the G-Class 鈥?a limited-production, ultra-expensive
retro-wagon that is essentially a German Hummer. We recently tested the
new third-generation 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL450 4Matic, a midlevel
V-8-powered version, to see if this truly is the market鈥檚 best big
SUV.
