One problem related to engine and engine cooling has been reported for the 2008 Mercedes Benz R350. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
1. Air suspension bag rt side needed replaced. Car was setting low and leaning to right rear- while this was in for repair had mechanic check recent "check engine " light code came up with very serious and expensive issue: 2. Balance shaft gear defective apparently mercedes has been aware of this problem, class action suits have been filed- no recall yet. I plan to call mercedes dealer tomorrow- do not anticipate any help on their part - if that's the case will try to join class action suit as this is a known and very costly -(thousands of dollars) problem for numerous mb vehicles- many classes from 2007 -2011. Mercedes benz was apparently aware of this defect when I purchased my vehicle (used) from local mb dealer here in central PA on Dec. 3, 2012.
