About

This wiki is inspired by the great work of benzworld.org W220 forum members who have shared their experiences with repairing their W220s.

The purpose of a this wiki encyclopedia is to be a single, authoritative, precise and factual source of information for our cars. The data in the forums contains some of that: but it also contains noise, opinion, conjecture etc. The point of the wiki is that we remove all that noise, and leave it with well-structured, factual content.
