I used to have a CLK 320 and feel the need for another one. Anyone any views as to which from a "performance" view is better - from both engine and chassis. I know the 320 only has limited scope for additional work both on tuning and it's a heavy lump, but what about the 230k?

Hi,
My car has a overheating issue, the A/C doesn't seem that cold and the fan on the radiator does not come at all. The only way to keep it steady is to have the heater on full.
I have replaced the thermostat and still no joy.
I have checked all fuses and they are working fine.
Any...

Hi all,
Can anyone recommend a performance air filter that can fit onto a 2000 (X) 230K?
I am thinking more of a cone type, nice looking one rather than a replacement flat element type.
Thanks guys,
Smokey Fontaine.

Hi Guys,
I have a very strange problem with my car. I ordered H&R Springs from Germany with 40mm drop all around specifically for W208 230K Coupe. The car literally became extremely low and front tires will hit fender and inner lining and the exhaust hits speed bumps. Its not drivable. Rear...

Hi all
My CLK has a flat battery after being stood still for a few weeks. I can open the driver's door with the metal key insert OK by turning, but I cannot open the boot with the same key. I have tried pushing it in but it doesn't do anything.
Is it supposed to be able to turn in the boot...

Hi all, I'm looking to confirm, or rule out choices in oil and would appreciate any input.
I'm looking for an oil than can be used in both my s320 2001 cdi and the wife's slk 230k 1998. Both are high mileage, 150k and 160k miles respectively.
Checked both handbooks and the s says 229.1 or...
Hi all,
I don't seem to be having much luck with the search facility. Does anyone know what colour or paint code the wheels are on the 2001 CLK 230K?
Cheers.
I just test drive a clk 230k vert and to be honest was very disappointed. Are they meant to perform well? This one I had tested felt there was no go and also a delay when you put the throttle down.
Also when to test drive a 320 and the car was a lot more responsive and smooth
Any advice would...

Hi guys I have spent nearly all my time looking on eBay, auto trader etc trying to find either a 230k or a 320. My budget is around £2k I know this is not much but it's going just be a second car in the family. Ideally I love to have a convetible. I would like either a black or silver but must...
hi guys

it feels like a similar jolt as to when we...
