Description of the problem	2012 e350 coupe. Car was making an odd "clunking" noise when started, but would fade or idle out after a couple of seconds. Took it into mb service today and was just informed that my car has a camshaft problem and it's wearing on the right cylinder head. Service rep says they have seen several cars come in with the same issue. Repairs cost $9,000! Seems like an engineering/mechanical defect as i was told there was nothing i could have done to prevent this issue.
