What are common issues with the 2011 Mercedes Benz E350?

So, I’ve had a 2011 E350 for a while now and there’s a few things to mention. First off, the gas mileage can be hit or miss. Sometimes it’s great, but other times not so much. Also, the transmission can act up—like it shifts weirdly or hesitates. And the engine light sometimes turns on for no reason, can get annoying. The AC fan gets noisy too, it’s not the best. Some folks said their electronics glitched out like the radio and navigation system.

But on the plus side, it’s a solid ride overall. Is anyone else having issues with the engine light or the transmission? Or maybe the AC makes weird noises? Let me know what you think.

I’ve owned a 2011 E350 up here in Toronto and man, the EGR problems are real. I’ve heard folks talkin’ about dodgy transmissions too. Overall solid ride, but a few glitches here and there. Stick with the maintenance, y’know? It’s all smooth sailing after that!

I’ve had mine in Toronto for a few years now, and let me tell ya, the 2011 E350 ain’t perfect, fam.

Still loving the ride though!

I’ve got a 2011 E350 in Canada, ya know, and the turbo fails often. I’ve seen a lot of A/C troubles too, especially in the cold months. Suspension issues too, some rattle-n-roll. Not the smoothest ride, but hey, Mercedes sleek lines still pull ya in!

Other folks have any solid fixes?

Just gotta keep an eye out for random electrical hiccups.

I’ve had my eyes on this topic 'cause my buddy in Toronto was dealing with his '11 E350—lots of A/C hiccups! He told me it was like trying to catch flies with a fork, real frustrating. And steering troubles, too. Hydraulics issue, he said. Thought Mercedes was top-notch, but these quirks… let’s just say, it ain’t all about that sleek ride or fancy logo!

I had this 2011 Mercedes Benz E350 up in Canada, and boy, did it give me a run for my money. The transmission often felt sluggy, especially when downshifting; it nearly jumped out of my seat. Quality leather seats were great at first, but they degraded quicker than expected. Also, I’ve heard others complain about that check engine light that fools you, even when there’s no issue. But at least the ride felt smooth enough to overlook these hiccups now and then.

I’ve got a 2011 E350 here in Canada and the engine light pops up like a jack-in-the-box! I’ve also had the suspension checked, seems like a kicker of a ride after a year or two.

I’ve got a buddy near Toronto who’s got a 2011 E350. Keeps having issues with the ABS light flickering on and off—that’s one major bummer! Also, battery problems a lot.

Heard some stories ‘bout the electronics glitching tho—just gotta keep on truckin’!
