Guys, Please advise on the potential value of a w208 clk55 with 177k miles. I love the car, but maybe it is time to change

My CLK 55 has a rattle under the passenger side front seat or there abouts. I am told it is a cat converter that can be removed and left out. I initially thought it was a heat shield, but when you tap the mid box you hear the rattle. The CLK exhaust system splits at this point under the car and...

Please Help My 2001clk55 is running great but for some reason it decided not to start. I drove for about 30 minutes and then stopped to run into the shop, when I came out and turned the key nothing happened. The lights and the radio all work but the engine doesn't react when I turn the key...

Hi my near side mirror indicator has stopped working. There is no impact on the indicator blinking frequency on the front and rear indicator that you get when a bulb is out at the front or rear. I have dismantled the mirror and ensured all the wires are connected. Could a fuse be causing...

Hi, Are there any happy GL500 owners out there??? I have a 2006 GL 500 and so far the engine has been stripped due to a camshaft error, brake callipers replaced as seized, secondary blower replaced and now the gearbox needs to be dropped out to replace seals! Parking sensors are faulty but then...

Hi, I own and love my w208 CLK55, but the family is getting bigger and I am considering an E55 or E63. I love the CLK55, but it hurts noticing the rust bubbles even with a lot of continual waxing and general tlc including overnight and weekend garaging. Please let me know of any known...

Just had the Air Con tested on my w208 55 to be told there is a very small leak but not obvious in the engine bay, so the guy believes it is the evaporator behind the dash. What is involved to remove the evaporator to repair/replace? thanks Ian

Hi, my GL 500 engine light is on and my local garage have diagnosed a sensor problem and I need part A0041539628. Can anybody suggest the best place to buy rather than the stealership cheers Ian

I have put Falkens on the back of my 55 for the past 2 years but I am not getting many miles, what do most people get out of rear boots. I find the rear gives way a lot when the tyres are going off, the triangle flashes even on motorways when taking long corners at a reasonable speed. All...

Hi, I am considering a refurb of my AMG wheels and considering an anthracite colour on my W208 CLK. Has anybody tried this or know whether it suits the car? My car is a wonderful deep blue and I thought this new wheel colour would work well, I am keen to get other opinion. Thanks Ian

I have read many of the threads regarding lumpy gear changes etc. but have not found one that meets my experience with the car. Basically the gear change is quite abrupt when changing up at speed or when the car changes down. If you press hard done on the accelerator, it goes down the gears ok...

Hi, Please help, my CLK55 w208 is sick. I changed the MAF and this improved performance greatly and removed the stalling at lights however the car intermittently runs very lumpy.......if that makes sense?? The car seems to exhibit this misfire when hot, but it is intermittent. Any...

My external temperature gauge is providing some spurious readings as I live in N. Ireland and apparently my external temperature has touched 38 which then drops quite quickly to the high twenty's which again is not common in my neck of the woods. I have just had the air-con re-gassed and...

Hi, Is it possible to improve the illumination of the headlights on my W208 CLK 55. The full beam is fine, but when you go back to dip it is really quite dark! Maybe I am just getting old and my eyesight is fading along with other senses!! Any suggestions much appreciated Thanks Ian

My driver seat has stopped sliding back and forward, the back of the seat and headrest still move, however the seat slid forward when I opened it and now will not move back to my driving position. All suggestions greatly received Thanks Ian

Hi, I have just had my air con re-gassed but for some reason the windows keep steaming up when there are more than 2 people in the car irrespective of the weather. I have to keep hitting the de-mist and sometimes the blower is not very strong, it does come on but not very strong. any...

Has anybody converted a four seater to a five seater changing the back seat and adding a third seatbelt? Thanks Ian

Guys, I am having a bit of nightmare as I had my wing mirror demolished by something protruding from a passing car that didn't stop. Can anybody suggest the best place to get a replacement at the best price? I will get a car bodyshop nearby to paint and fit. Thanks Ian
