    2008 CLK cabriolet A pillar trim

    I've tried, how I've tried, to get on with WIS, but I'm not of the computer generation and I just can't get the hang of it. My '08 CLK 'vert has the one-piece A-pillar trims, and I need to remove the LH one to fit a DAB aerial. I've looked on the internet, but all I've found is the information...

    New Outlook for Windows

    I'm getting old and forgetful, and want to start using the Calendar feature in Outlook. I'm using Microsoft Outlook 2019, but if I try to open the calendar, I get a popup asking me to download Outlook for Windows. I'm still using Windows 10, and I don't particularly want to move to Windows 11...

    Audio 20 Pinout Diagram

    The car is a 2008 CLK (W209) Convertible. I have removed the head unit - basic poverty spec Audio 20, single CD, no MOST, no CD changer, no Nav, steering wheel volume control, and that's it. The only surprise was two Fakra aerial connectors, not one; turns out the 'vert has two radio aerials as...

    Fakra Aerial Adapter - W209

    Good evening all. I'm replacing the Audio 20 in my 2008 CLK with a Blaupunkt. No MOST, but there are two Fakra aerial connectors on the rear of the unit. One of the leads, thank goodness, still has the original label attached, and the part number is A2095406433. Working from Googling this, it...

    Amaretta Beige 805A

    The car is a 2008 CLK. I need to touch-up a patch, about 1 inch by two, on the steering wheel. The paint code is 805A - Amaretta Beige. Has anyone found a reasonable colour match?

    Top End Oil Seep M272

    The car is a 2008 CLK 350 - W272 engine; 125K miles under the wheels, but it's the quietest engine I've ever had in a Mercedes. There's a smell of burnt oil in the cabin when the heater fan is running, and I know why; there's a slight seep of oil dripping on to the L/H exhaust manifold, and the...

    New Headlamp Bulbs

    The headlamp bulbs on the '08 CLK (stock halogen H7) are very yellow, and I'd like to replace them with bulbs with a whiter light, and if possible better light output. I'm not interested in illegal LED or Xenon/HID bulbs, though. I presume (because of the price) these 'xenon technology' are in...

    Parking Sensor Hole Diameter - 2008 CLK

    Good afternoon all. Does anybody know the diameter of the parking sensor holes in the rear bumper for OE parking sensors? I ask because my 2008 CLK has sensor bumpers, with sensors installed, but they are not the original bumpers. I also need a new head unit, and Pioneer make one that works...

    CLS 63 - Time For A New Battery?

    2014 CLS 63. Been standing for nearly a fortnight, started OK, but would not come out of Park, though the selector lever moved as normal. Ran it for about half a minute, turned off, on again, started, back to normal. However, the green 'ECO' (Stop/Start) light did not come on for a good few...

    Wheel Refurbisher Northwich Area

    Can anyone recommend a company to refurbish kerbing on alloy wheels in the Northwich, Cheshire area? Googling finds numerous mobile companies which will rock up and do it on the spot, but I've no idea if they are better than ones where you take the wheels to them.

    Smart Meter

    I've never seen any benefit in paying to have a smart meter fitted (or two in my case, as I get my gas and electricity through the same provider), and it won't make the slightest difference to my energy consumption knowing how much I'm using. I have no difficulty in reading my own meters and...

    Heater Fan Not Running

    Good day everyone. The car is a 2014 SLK 55 on 58K miles. The heater blower motor is not running at all; it was working fine when I switched off yesterday, today there's nothing. The iCarsoft checking the blower motor alternates between displaying 14.60 and 0 volts - nothing in between - and...

    Should I Buy From This Company?

    I'm thinking of buying a commuter (bike, not car) from a company. It's a one-man-band operation, and he comes across as thoroughly honest and decent, backed up by decent Google feedback. Thing is, it's too far away for me to view the bike, so I'd have to pay for it unseen (pics look fine, and...

    Can Anyone Identify This Number Plate Holder?

    The CLS has an aftermarket rear number plate holder, and I'd like to replace the 3D plates with standard plates. The number plate holder has no manufacturer's markings on it, and looks like it comes apart in the centre of each upright, with two small slots 4mm long just above the join. I expect...
