It was just a bit of a wonky engine. Instead of designing a good engine to replace the bulletproof M120 they designed a cheap engine. They went from a 48v dohc 6.0l to a 36v dohc 5.8. It actually made less power than the M120 it replaced. And along with the cylinder deactivation it was just a poorly designed engine.…
Yes, it's a horrifically bad engine. They replaced it in 2003 with the M275 5.5 bi-turbo.
Yep ! Or any puddle or stain under the car, even if it’s dirty water from ice/slush melting. Owning a V12 is stressful lol.
Oh Jesus. How did you get pentosin to boil ? Mine’s never done that. And I completely agree on the cheap part. Anyone who buys a very cheap car with ABC is gonna eat shit. You need to find a good, well sorted example if you have any hopes of keeping it or your bank account balance for any period of time.
Unless you buy a properly sorted one and do recommended preventative maintenance.
Oh god. That car is worth mayyyybe $6,000 tops to get it sorted out. Coming from a S600 owner.
Ok then, I'm happy with that resolution... And I drive a S600. MOAR V12
The auto journalists reviewed the genesis and found it to be a better car to drive than the 5/E class. What do you drive then?
It’s been tested as a better car than the 5 series/ E class. And I bet you that my car is much more “soulful” than whatever it is you drive.
Why ? If it's an abjectly better car for less money , why not ?
It is crazy cool. My S600, which weighs the best part of 5000 pounds, handles better than it has any right to while being superbly comfortable.
Yeah. But the MBC is just a more complicated ABC. And what sort of W220 do you have ?
It can be a bit horrific sometimes
A 2004 S600
Are you sure ? It is very expensive to fix when it breaks. Ask me how I know.
I have a car with the predecessor to MBC and you can't feel expansion joints at 100 mph
The pre ‘03 220 series cars were poorly built dogs . I implore you to give a facelifted W220 a try. I love my ‘04 S600 and have no quality issues apart from the mirror cover on the front sun visors.
