Browse 2006 Mercedes Engines by Model
Match your 2006 Mercedes engine by vehicle. Use the cards below to identify the right chassis Type code and fitment — every unit is then VIN-matched at the order step.
2006 SL Class
230 & 220 Type — SL500, SL55 AMG, SL600, SL65 AMG plus 220-Type S350/S430/S500/S55/S600/S65 units cataloged under this badge. Check the Type code, not the badge.
2006 S Class
220 & 230 Type — S350, S430, S500, S55 AMG, S600, S65 AMG. 2006 is the LAST year of the 220-Type S Class; the 221 arrives for 2007 and does not interchange.
2006 C Class
203 Type (Sdn) — C230, C280 (RWD/4MATIC), C350 (RWD/4MATIC), C55 AMG. Confirm drivetrain: mounts and accessory routing differ between RWD and 4MATIC.
2006 CLK
209 Type — CLK350, CLK500, CLK55 AMG in both Coupe and Convertible. The V6, V8 and AMG units are separate engines, not trim variants.
2006 SLK
171 Type — SLK280, SLK350, SLK55 AMG. The compact roadster V6 range and the AMG 5.4L V8, each compression-tested before sale.
2006 CL Class
215 Type — CL500, CL55 AMG, CL600, CL65 AMG. 2006 closes out the 215-Type coupe; the 216 lands in 2007 and shares no engine mounting.
2006 E Class
211 Type — E350 (RWD/4MATIC), E500. The 3.5L V6 ships in both drivetrains — we VIN-match the correct one.
2006 CLS
219 Type — CLS500, CLS55 AMG. The four-door coupe 5.0L V8 and the supercharged AMG M113K, never interchangeable.
2006 R Class
251 Type — R350, R500. The R Class DEBUTS for 2006 — a first-year 251 unit, VIN-matched to your chassis.
2006 G Class
463 Type — G500, G55 AMG. The G-Wagen 5.0L V8 and the supercharged AMG unit, inspected and palletized.
2006 B Class
245 Type — B200 and B200 Turbo, AT (CVT). The compact tourer four-cylinder units; the Turbo is a distinct engine from the base B200.
2006 ML Series
164 Type — ML350, ML500. The 164 Type ML DEBUTS for 2006, replacing the 163 — a 163-Type engine will not fit a 2006 ML.
Why Buy a 2006 Mercedes Engine from Auto Power Source
Every 2006 Mercedes engine we list is inventory-verified: pulled from a low-mileage donor, cataloged against its chassis Type code and engine ID, and held in our climate-controlled warehouse pending sale. Each unit passes the same six-step inspection — VIN-matching, compression testing, noise & smoke verification, full visual inspection, multi-angle photography, and palletized shipping.
2006 is a genuine hinge year for Mercedes fitment — it is the last year of the 220-Type S Class and the 215-Type CL, and the first year of the 164-Type ML and the 251-Type R Class, so a badge that reads the same on a 2005 or a 2007 car can sit on a completely different engine. Two Type codes can also wear the same badge inside 2006 itself, and the AMG 55 and 65 units share nothing with the base V6 and V8. Our ASE-certified technicians compression-test every cylinder and run a leak-down evaluation before any unit is cleared, and we check those fitment traps against your VIN rather than the badge on the trunk. You pay a fraction of dealer-new pricing for identical Mercedes engineering, ship free on a heavy-duty pallet anywhere in the continental U.S., and get up to a 3-year warranty plus 30-day money-back. Not sure which 2006 variant fits? Text your VIN and we will confirm.

2006 Mercedes Engine Buying Guide
-
Confirm the chassis Type code. Mercedes catalogs 2006 engines by body Type (203, 209, 211, 215, 219, 220, 230, 245, 251, 164, 171, 463) — the same model name can span two Type codes, and our 2006 listings carry both 220 and 230 Type units under the S/SL badges.
-
Watch the 2006 generation boundaries. 2006 is the LAST year of the 220-Type S Class and the 215-Type CL (the 221 and 216 arrive for 2007), and the FIRST year of the 164-Type ML and the 251-Type R Class. An engine from either side of those splits will not fit.
-
Match drivetrain (RWD vs 4MATIC). The 2006 C280, C350 and E350 all ship in both — mounts, sump and accessory routing differ between them.
-
Treat AMG units as distinct. The 55, 63 and 65 designations (M113K, M156, M275/M285) are separate engines from the standard V6/V8 — they never interchange with the base unit.
-
Always run the donor VIN if available. We provide it on request for any 2006 Mercedes engine in our inventory so you can verify mileage and history before you commit.
Our ASE-certified technicians verify every one of these points against your VIN before any engine ships.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the warranty on a 2006 Mercedes engine?
Up to 3 years, depending on the specific unit. The exact warranty term is listed on each product page.
What does compression-tested mean?
ASE-certified technicians compression-test every cylinder and run a leak-down evaluation before a 2006 Mercedes engine is cleared for sale.
How long until delivery?
Prep and ship time is 3-5 business days. Transit time is 2-3 business days via freight carrier after dispatch.
Can I see photos before I buy?
Yes. Multi-angle photos of the actual unit are sent before payment, for your approval.
Do I need my VIN?
Strongly recommended. 2006 Mercedes engines vary by chassis Type code, drivetrain, AMG designation, and body style (Coupe vs Convertible on the 209).
What if I do not approve the photos?
Every dollar back — no restocking fees, no return freight charges.
Why is this cheaper than the dealer?
It is the same Mercedes-engineered OEM unit, pulled from a low-mileage donor rather than built new — you skip the dealer-new markup, not the engineering.
