    I had a 2003 ML500 , loved it and sold it at 163K still strong. Now I have a ML320 from 2002 , its a black beast. Amazing engine at 130K still runs like new. No codes stored in the module. Love these cars. Sold my ML500 about 2 years ago and I missed my ML500 so much I bought this one. Great on gas and very powerful. Great looking SUV.

    What a cool car, a sport ml500 in that color, awesome. I have an 02 Ml55 which I waited a long time to find the right one. Happy to see other people (enthusiasts or otherwise) enjoying these cars for how simple they are

    Very cool! I’m at 109k miles on my ML500 2002. Didn’t know about the grill badge, will apply for it when I hit 155k.

    Hi Dear! I sincerely appreciate your dedication to educating public. I have a ML 500 and I really like to clean the engine to get rid of the grease. Would you please make a video on how to clean the greasy engine.
    Thank you so much!

    When the ML goes in limp mode sometimes it is a cam position sensor. Easy fix.

    What is the total expense you put into the car? Thinking about buying a 2000 430 ml with 110k ‘miles. Needs a couple things fixed. Not sure to oil the trigger

    Our transfer case/box is our weak point if you force it. Change the oil regularly and to the gearbox also. Also change the oil for differentials
