Product Overview

Mercedes-Benz ML-Class W164 facelift is a mid-size crossover in production from 2008 to 2011. It was available with a range of V6 and V8 engines that displaced 3.0 to 6.2 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift, the facelifted W164 received minor exterior and interior updates. As emission standards continued to tighten, the engines were modified to keep up. Besides the M156-powered ML63 AMG, the ML500 / ML550 became more reliable as Mercedes sorted out the timing gear issue in early units. Curiously, a "new" ML450 CDI is added, though the engine produces no more power than the ML420 CDI.
