Why Buy a 2020 Mercedes Engine from Auto Power Source
Every 2020 Mercedes engine we list is inventory-verified: pulled from a low-mileage donor vehicle, cataloged against its chassis Type code and VIN, and held in our climate-controlled warehouse pending sale. Each unit goes through our six-step inspection — VIN-matching, ASE testing, noise & smoke verification, full visual inspection, multi-angle photography, and palletized shipping.
Our ASE-certified technicians compression-test every cylinder and run a leak-down evaluation before any 2020 Mercedes engine is cleared for sale. You pay a fraction of dealer-new pricing for identical Mercedes-Benz 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 whether your 2020 car is a 253 or a 118 Type? Text your VIN and we will confirm.

2020 Mercedes Engine Buying Guide
-
Start with the chassis Type code. Mercedes catalogs 2020 engines by body Type — 253 for the GLC Class, 118 for the CLA Class. The Type code, not the badge, drives the fitment.
-
Read the 6th and 7th VIN digits. A 2020 GLC300 shows VIN 8 in the 6th digit; a CLA250 shows 4H or 4G in the 6th and 7th. Same displacement can still be a different engine.
-
Confirm body style within the Type. The 253 Type covers both the SUV and the SUV Coupe — verify which one you have before ordering.
-
Match drivetrain (RWD vs 4MATIC). Mercedes ships 2020 models in both; mounts, sump geometry, and accessory brackets differ between them.
-
Always run the donor VIN if available. We provide it on request for any engine in our inventory to verify mileage and history.
Our ASE-certified technicians verify every one of these points against your VIN before any engine ships.
