FS: 2003 G55

Kicking around the idea of selling my built G55 . I purchased it w/ 60k miles in early 2015. It now has 103K miles on it. I’ve used it to travel, camp and commute to work. It’s far from perfect, but it has been a very reliable and capable expedition vehicle. It's located in Los Angeles.

$45K


Upgrades/Mods:
• Old Man EMU dampers and springs
• Braid Dakar Rally wheels 17” – made in Spain to my specs and powder coated (some minor chipping on 2 wheels)
• Toyo Open County R/T 285/70/17
• Desert Services Roof Rack – Imported directly from Germany, modified with LED lights port and starboard, with a fore light bar. All lights controlled via rf wireless remote
• Desert Service G Raid Rear Ladder – Rear LED light
• Desert Service G Raid front molded floor mats
• G-wagonaccessories All Steel rear bumper, tow hitch and tow wiring kit
• Modified rear wheel carrier to accommodate new wheel/tire combo
• Fender flares are plasti dipped – not sure I like the look, I think it needs a proper black front bumper to round it out…easy to peal the plasti dip off
• Driver side rear seat removed for more storage
• Running boards removed and muffler tips trimmed to match

Service / Repairs:
• New Bosch Starter @ 103K
• New shifter linkage bushing @ 103K
• Scheduled oil changes and filters as prescribed by MB
• Cranks sensor @ 60k
• Brake Pedal Sensor around 65K
• Accelerator Pedal Sensor around 62K
• Brakes front and rear around 90K
• Complete 100K service around 96K – plugs, all fluids, including trans filter replacement, new idler pulley and tensioner w/ pulley
• Passenger seat controller replaced to fix parasitic draw
• All locking diff fluids flushed and operating as designed

Issues / Blemishes:
• Power steering reservoir feed hose weeps a little
• Lots of grease on passenger ball, likely requires a new CV boot
• Rear tail lights cracked from bulb heat
• Headliner is a quitter
• Dent on rear door from rouge trailer
• Glove box handle missing – the outer handle cover, you can still open it and functions as designed
• Mufflers rattle – insides are
• Passenger window rolls up slow….but always makes it!

What a great vehicle. One of the naturally aspirated AMG m113 motors.
Nice price too
