I'm selling my CLK430. It is a year 2000 model, facelift A208 shape, just coming up to 118k miles, MOT until November 2023, price £2950. I'm based in Hampshire between Hindhead and Bordon. Hope this is OK, I've listed it on a certain auction website and provided the link below with full...

I suspect something might be draining the battery slightly on my A208 CLK430. I've just fitted a new battery as the old one was wasn't the correct spec and was of unknown age, but the voltage is still dropping slightly after the car has been standing for a week. I read up on how to check for a...

Eisenmann rear muffler exhaust for sale, fits the CLK 430. I'm selling because it requires a bumper cut in order to sit in place correctly and I decided to keep my bumper unmodified. I trial fitted (without the bumper cut) to my convertible CLK, it sounded great but didn't sit correctly and...

Hi all, The brake pedal in my 2000 CLK430 doesn't return upwards when the interior of the car is hot. The braking action is fine, the car stops exactly as it should, but the pedal won't return and needs a nudge with my left foot. It is directly related to the interior temperature of the car...

My CLK430's gearbox has decided to stop shifting gear properly. I can select drive and reverse, but there's a bit of a jolt when selecting, and then it seems to be stuck in 1st and I can't manually select any gears either. I assume this is some kind of 'limp home mode'? I first noticed it last...

Can anyone point me towards an online MB parts catalogue?

I sometimes use the MB parts catalogue on the mbepc.net website, it's a really useful resource, but it hasn't been working for the last couple of days. When I drill down into the different sections the links are all broken and come back with an error. Anyone else had this or just me? Is this...

Hi all I'm noticing my boot sometimes seems to be damp, and smells a bit musty. I've read that the middle brake light is a prime suspect for letting in water but what's the best way to deal with it, do I need to buy a new lens, or is the seal available separately? Is there a better fix? Thanks

I had problems with my seized antenna on my CLK convertible (A208) so I ordered a second hand replacement off ebay. It came as a full assembly, including mast, base and amplifier. The thing is I can't unscrew this one either so am thinking about returning it, but now I am questioning whether...

The radio reception is a bit patchy on my A208 CLK430 so I decided to start looking into it. There seem to be several complaints on other forums about the radio reception on these cars but I don't believe we just have to put up with that! My antenna looks like it's seen better days so that's my...

I'm thinking of getting a wind deflector for the A208 CLK. I see there are plenty of aftermarket ones on ebay (many shipped from Germany), are these as good as genuine ones or is it better to wait for a good used genuine one to come up for sale? Thanks

All this rain recently has highlighted a leak in the CLK's soft top. I called into a local specialist this morning and after a quick look he advised that it is most likely the roof fabric itself that has gone porous. He recommended trying to reseal it as the first port of call. To give him...

Sorry if this has been done to death, but couldn't see any directly relevant threads. My year 2000 A208 CLK has the Comand unit with phone cradle, I believe it is the Comand 2.0 unit. It has an aux socket in the glove box so that is handy, but I'm used to having bluetooth streaming music in...

Hi All Just checking in. I recently got a CLK430 convertible, it's my first Mercedes so I suspect I'll be making use of this forum. I'm still getting to know the car, and waiting for the Spring weather! Cheers Jules
