Best Mercedes choice ! Had mine for 2 years and has 135, xxx miles no problems

I LOVE my GLK. Best car I’ve ever owned. Did lots of mods to it to keep me interested. With all that said, it’s very reliable

I have a GLK 250 from 2015 and with AMG package. THe interior is almost like SLA class. Drove over 134000 kilometers and combined 34 MPG.
No issues other than regular oil change and service. This small SUV weight is same as a minivan. Heavy, well built and extremely nimble. They are no longer making these solid automobiles anymore. This GLK is replaced by lighter weight, cheap plasticky GLC model. Thanks I was able to grab one of the last pieces available in late 2015.

I'm a BMW fan, but the GLK looks much better than the X3 by

[mohnjayer]

Had one of these for two years. Been solid as a rock with regular maintenance.

2014 BlueTEC 250 AMG. 265, 000km zero problems.
Found a qualified Mercedes trained service centre that keeps exorbitant dealer services prices more realistic

Appreciate the tips.
I’ve had my 2012 GLK350 4matic since May 2012. Only 110, 000 km’s.
Love the “Panzer”. Perfect for about town, highway or light/medium off-pavement driving. I’ve never gotten stuck in snow even with stock Dunlop all season tires.
I suggest installing K&N high flow air filters. It makes driving the car in “E” (economy) a pleasant and more peppy experience (it’s otherwise too unresponsive & too sluggish at lower RPM) and improves gas mileage.
The only repair I’ve had (other than maintenance) has been a blown oil filter cooler that contaminated the cooling system/fluid: $2, 300 (Cdn)!

I replaced washer fluid tank. Front differential was leaking. But Payback oil treatment fixed that. Other than that it's a great car. Love it. 2010 GLK.

The window control buttons on the door, black paint peels off. The center console plastic scratches easily.

Your videos are very helpful. I always check your videos when looking for a car.

Thank you for the info on the Mercedes-Benz automobiles. I prefer Mercedes although I have never driven a Bentley or similar quality car. Mercedes is better than most cars I don't see how the Rolls and other cars can be better, but then, I have never driven one. The new Rolls have no curb appeal so I would never bother to look inside or drive one

I had one but returned it quickly. Exterior was cool, but interior was a let down and not updated, ergonomics, electronics, space, seats didn't go back enough, jiggly stiff ride, felt tippy. Got rid of my mint condition one so soon, but I did make more on the return.

Just sold my 2014 - here's me take. I had zero tech, other than Bluetooth and heated seats. No Nav or anything. Kind of a drag without it. I keep my wallet in my from pocket, and it CONSTANTLY bumped into the center console dial, which usually cut off whatever I was listening to. You also had to rest the audio every time you plug your phone in. The Mercedes audio interface cable is useless. Nice and zippy, although you really need to use throttle control, as when you floor it, you bog down. The sport button is in a weird place on the console. By far my biggest complaint is that at 30MPH it bottoms out on even a low speed bump. If you live in an area with no bumps, its really fun to drive.

Just got mine 2014 GLK 250 - 54, 000km.

Awesome video! I subscribed to your channel.

[herrietencate]

Nice review. I'm shopping for a 2015. Unfortunately in North America...I can only find automatics. Oh well.

[huangzhongjian]

i come frome china。i have GLk300
Imported from Germany
At 130KM
Changed gearbox and transfer case。

The transfer case began to leak oil from the new car. Continued until I replaced it

[bobmorgan]

How comfortable the ride of this car on road imperfections? Does it have air suspension? Or electric shock absorbers ? I have seen one almost like new but worried about comfort

[paulp]

how would a 5 member family fit into this car, comparing to a VW Touran?

[usamamohammed]

Jaguar XF 2008- quite an awesome car, can we expect that a video from you, about this car any time soon?
