Replacement Parts for the Mercedes Benz E500 at Partstrain

by: Jenny McLane
The award-winning Mercedes-Benz E-Class line will soon feature the new 2006-model E350 sedan and wagon, both powered by a new-generation 3.5-litre V6 engine that produces 268 horsepower – a 20 percent increase over the 3.2-litre engine.

The E500 stands at the top of the regular E-Class sedan lineup, which also includes the V6-powered E320 and new-for-`05 E320CDI turbo diesel. The 3.5-litre V6 features four valves per cylinder; double-overhead camshafts and variable valve timing for both intake and exhaust valves. This is the first time Mercedes-Benz has used double-overhead camshaft technology on its V6 engines.

One of the most powerful engines for its size, the 3.5-litre all-aluminum V6 produces 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, with maximum torque available from 2,400 rpm all the way up to 5,000 rpm. At only 1,500 rpm, the new V6 already develops 87 percent of its maximum torque. E class models have the hood, front fenders, trunk lid, and suspension sub frames are aluminum, as are numerous suspension pieces. There is increased structural use of high-strength steel as well. The design and construction helps the ride comfort and handling of all E-Class models, but the E500 and E55AMG have a special trick as standard equipment - Airmatic DC (Dual Control) semi-active air suspension, derived from that used in the premium S-Class. The air springs and shock absorbers use electronic sensors and computer-controlled actuation to match suspension response to road conditions, driving style, and cornering force.The E350 and E500 rear-drive models come equipped with the world’s first seven-speed automatic transmission. The seven-speed transmission improves acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h by up to 0.3 seconds and allows significantly quicker acceleration in highway passing situations. At the same time, shifting is even smoother than with the previous five-speed.

The 2005 Mercedes E-Class has a strong chassis structure with large front and rear crumple zones, adaptive airbags, a rollover sensor that can deploy side window bags, and ``Tele Aid'' telematics to summon help in the event of a severe accident. ESP stability control, traction control, and antilock brakes with Brake Assist are all standard.

It features a 3.2L inline-six diesel engine producing 268 horsepower and 369 ft-lbs of torque. This engine is coupled to a driver-adaptive electronic five-speed automatic transmission with Touch Shift. Other E-Class models include the E320 in Sedan or Wagon, The E500 in Sedan or AWD Sedan or Wagon, and the E55 AMG Sedan or Wagon. The E-Class offers several luxury packages, including Lighting, Entertainment, and Sunroof Packages. Other options include Keyless Go, a tire-pressure monitoring system, heated front seats, a hands-free communications system, and an audio-visual parking aid system (Parktronic).

Shock absorbers are in abundance at Partstrain. May it be to replace a badly damaged one, to lift your car for sturdier rides or for higher ground clearance, or to lower your car for better handling. Spark Plugs too are in stock. Partstrain offers different brands of spark plugs. Every time you have a tune up, a good set of spark plugs is needed for better power output of your engine. Replacement and Aftermarket Parts are available, depending on the specifications needed.
