We bought a 2004 E350 in 2008. No mechanical problems so far. After reading about spark plug problems I looked for a shop with knowledgeable mechanic. Now my feeling that our beloved C is half way through its lifetime I asked the owner/chief mechanic to change spark plugs and their coils plus basic maintenance things like transmission and cooling system fluid changes. The mechanic said there was no problem changing spark plugs and no need for new coils. He appreciated me bringing it in during the not so busy winter time and bringing it Home when busy.. After 6 months it’s all finished except for shocks and rear end oil change.
I changed oil every September, fuel filter once, and of course tires. I modified the radio so it can be used when the engine is off. Added a rear facing camera, house battery monitor, replaced propane leak alarm and CO alarm.
My only worry is being afraid to change a dual wheel tire. Time to get insurance for roadside help as we camp mostly in remote regions.
