    Cruise Blues! (& distronic)

    Hi Everyone, Sadly a slightly long winded, unavoidable story to my plight. My cruise and Distrionic don't work, the little orange limiter light works on the stalk, although a limit cannot be set. When I bought the W209 CLK, I was informed cruise was disengaged. The car has Distrionic...

    Climate issue - air to footwell

    Hi Everyone, I'm not sure whether this should be under electronics or interior, so apologies if its in the wrong place. My 2003 CLK seems to have a slightly odd issue. When the air is directed to the footwell on the drivers side, there isn't much air coming through, even with the blower turned...

    CLK W209 whining noise

    Hi All, I have a 2003 W209 CLK55, on start up and running it had a whining noise. It doesn't seem to be pulley or belt related. Its had it since I bought it in the summer. I don't believe its the torque converter as I've had that replaced, and the noise was there before and after. It doesn't...

    Engine Oil level question

    Hi All, OK this may seem a dim question but bear with me. I have a 2003 reg CLK55 AMG. I recently did the service on it myself with Merc original parts. Merc gave me 8 litres of Castrol edge 0/40w oil. At the time, I didn't have the manual, so I started off by only adding 6l. The car was/is...

    Returning with a different Merc

    Hi All Thought I'd say Hi again after coming back to a Merc. I sold my SLK350, had a few cars in between, and realised I was never as happy ( with the exception of 1 car) as I was with the Merc, so I've treated myself to CLK55 AMG. Looking forward to getting back in to the Merc way of life...

Bought an SLK after a series of performance cars, none of which I was satisfied with for long. I had my eye on something else when the Merc popped up in budget. I decided to go for a...
