At a glance
- Years: coupe C118 and Shooting Brake X118, built 2019 to 2023. Facelift built 2023 to 2025.
- Reliability: 3/5. Few faults are confirmed in the sources read. Jerky shifts on the 7G-DCT gearbox and oil use on the 1.3 petrol matter most.
- DIY: 2/5. The checks need no tools, but gearbox, turbo and engine work needs a workshop.
- Prefer: a car with dealer proof that the 2019-2020 turbo recall was done, an oil record, and smooth shifts on a cold test drive.
- Avoid: a 7G-DCT car with jerky or delayed shifts, a gearbox warning, or low oil at a standstill check.

Before you buy
- Test-drive the car from cold. Pull away gently from a standstill and at low speed. Bad: jerks, delayed shifts, a gearbox warning or limp mode (reduced power). A scanner reads the gearbox fault memory. Needs a scanner.
- Check the oil level on the dipstick at a standstill, with the engine warm. Ask for service invoices that name the oil. Bad: low oil between services, or no record of an oil that meets Mercedes approval.
- Ask a Mercedes dealer to check open campaigns by VIN, including the 2019-2020 turbo oil-line recall and the 2024-2025 window-airbag recall. Bad: an open campaign, or no proof that it was done.
