Thread: Rust

Hi my car is a Mercedes 2002 Eclass e320 cdi Estate, (51 UK Reg) which has now got some rust spots on it in a number of areas, is it true that these cars have a 12 year anti rust warranty ! and is this warranty extended to a 2nd owner !! who lives in the Irish Republic,
Thanks

It is true that people have made these claims. I have seen second owners make it.

MB UK normally require a full Mercedes service history - but I think that is a requirement for newer cars, and when 'Mobilo Life' was first launched the warranty was even longer (30 years?)

Hi & thanks for that, now where do I stand with the rust on my car, can I bring it to a Mercedes Main dealer & ask him to remove the rot ! under warrenty !! and who's "Mobilo Life" I'm only asking as in the Rep. of Ireland I don't think they exist ! so where do I go to get this sorted under warrenty,
Regards

You have to be certain that a warranty job will be to your satisfaction. I have seen work done for "free" that was not as good as factory finish.

Hi & thanks for that, I guess I'll have to check around,
