Petrol-specific checks on the Mercedes-Benz E-Class

  • Cold-start behaviour. A genuine cold start reveals knocks, smoke and rough running that a warmed-up engine hides.
  • Timing chain or belt. We listen for chain rattle on start-up and check belt service history, because a skipped interval here is one of the most expensive engine faults to put right.
  • Carbon build-up. Direct-injection petrol engines are prone to intake carbon; we look for rough idle, misfires and the symptoms that come with it.
  • Cooling system. Water pump, thermostat and coolant condition are inspected for leaks and overheating risk.
  • Turbocharger health. On turbo engines we watch boost behaviour, smoke on load and any whine or shaft play that hints at a tiring turbo.

What we check on every car

No matter which Mercedes-Benz E-Class version you buy, the inspection runs through the same thorough checklist:

Bodywork & paint

Panel-by-panel paint-thickness gauge readings to reveal filler, resprays and past accident repairs.

Chassis & structure

Underbody, sills and structural members checked for corrosion, welding and crash damage.

Engine & drivetrain

Cold-start behaviour, fluid condition, leaks, belts and audible faults assessed.

Diagnostics (OBD)

Full electronic fault-code read-out from the on-board systems, live and stored codes.

Electric & hybrid systems

Battery state-of-health indicators, charging behaviour and high-voltage warnings for EVs and hybrids.

Suspension, steering, brakes

Wear, play, leaks, disc and pad condition and tyre health inspected.

Interior & electronics

Equipment, infotainment, climate and electrical functions tested for correct operation.

Road test

A short functional drive to judge gearbox, brakes, steering and running refinement.

Documentation check

VIN match, service history plausibility and odometer cross-check against condition.

Two packages, one inspection

The 35,999 Ft Standard package has you present with a printed report on the spot; the 39,999 Ft Digital is for when you cannot attend, with the full report, photos and video sent by email.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class: frequently asked questions

How much does a pre-purchase inspection of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class cost?

An on-site inspection of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class starts at 35,999 Ft for the Standard package, where you attend in person and we go through the findings with you at the car.

What should I have checked before buying a used Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

Most Mercedes-Benz E-Class examples are fine, but a few specific areas are worth checking before you commit.

What exactly do you check on a used Mercedes-Benz E-Class?

We go right through the car: paint thickness panel by panel, the structure and underbody for corrosion or past repairs, the engine or battery and the drivetrain, full on-board diagnostics with live data, the suspension, steering and brakes, the interior and electronics, and a short road test.
