Hello ,
I've just picked up a Clk 320 last week , I've been doing a fair amount of work (she's certainly in need)! When I purchased of assumed a front end collision as the bumper / bonnet didn't align on the right side . After fixing a sticky bonnet latch the bonnet is now down properly...
Hi guys
I have a CLK 430 1999...
It has a few problems...
Lumpy idle when warm... car basically rocks?
Lack of power between 2k and 4k revs feels like it's bogging... foot to the floor and no acceleration?
Not really sure what's going on..
Anyone enlighten me in any way???
Thanks...
Hi guys,
I have found you all a fix for not having to replace the whole glove box because of that rubbish catch (like a birds mouth and bar set up) that Mercedes CLKs have.
Basically buy one of these B&Q Ball Catch | Departments | DIY at B&Q
A ball catch which is usually used on...
Hi All
I have decided to put up my clk for sale, just not practical enough for me, so have decided to buy a range rover sport diesel.
Ive had her since last summer and have taken good care of her, changed any potential issues like the balance shaft.
I have advertised the car on autotrader...
Spotted one very close to me, sensible miles/price.
I've brought the vin spec list up but on this model I don't know what were options and what weren't.
It doesn't appear to have much, not even heated seats. Surely they weren't an option on the avantgarde spec?
Should it have Comand? Ad says so...
So today I had a nice 6 hour 300 mile round trip to north Wales to take the dog to the beach (I was bored). Motorway speeds and occasional spirited driving ;) the engine temp never went above 80-84 I have recently had a new oil cooler fitted in the rad. I can't remember what it used to run at on...
Cut long story short now driving without front anti roll bar.
Remains of broken bolt stuck in both sides, local spanner monkeys cannot remove and have advised get new subframe.
Anyone have any ideas/options on this???
Since I bought my CLK the inner window door rubbers have looked very odd, seem like cloth texture
no idea why I thought they were supposed to be black? Can anyone suggest what has happened this is on all 4 windows and doesn't look the best when using the pillarless feature haha
If...
Hi all,
My car has done just over 10,000 miles since it's last service about 1 year and 3 months ago. The MOT is due in May and I'm wondering whether I should service it or not. It's on 61,000 now.
It drives well and regularly gives fuel economy in the late 20's and on a very long steady...
Hi
I have, as far as I know, no problems but would like to have a basic OBD2 reader and reset tool for 1999 W208 with 38 pin socket under bonnet.
Would I be able to use a 38 pin to 16 pin adapter cable and a cheap reader/reset tool - I could get both for about 20 quid?
I have read other posts...
Hi guys!
Was thinking to upgrade the seats and try to fit the seats from e class convertible i found a good shape and condition seats on eBay .
Is it a mission Impossible or something can be done?
I have never done any seats conversions.
I would really appreciate if someone could help and thanks...
Hiya folks, first posting and hoping you'll be kind. I'm keen to get a W209 auto convertible, and hoping somebody can help with some guidance and advice. Are there any things I should particularly be watching out for ? Thanks in advance, Martin.
Hi All
On the lookout for a Black CLK convertible around the 2008 onwards if you're looking at selling.
I would like a black interior as well please.
LMK what you have
Thanks
Steve
Anybody got any ideas on what could help reduce my clk misting up inside? The w209 are absolutely shocking for it apparently, my dad w203 and that was bad too?
Have done a lot of searching on this topic. I have a yr2001 CLK convertible with Audio 10 - non Bose, I think. Photos of the sub are below.
One of my front door speakers has blown and the sub is useless. The whole things sounds slightly muddy, but I am on a very tight budget to upgrade.

Hi everyone,
Wondering if you would have come across similar scenario:
My consumption of my 270 cdi has been always really good, with most time computer showing an average 45mpg.
I just recently had my MOT done and it passed with flying colors, no advisories.
But since then, my computer seems...
Afternoon Gents,
Been a bit absent on the forums lately; I often check in but rarely have the technical know how to contribute!
Today I have a quick tech question.
Car: 2008 A209 CLK 350 Sport Cab (facelift model)
The spring seems to have failed in the "boot release lever". Let me...
Hi, I have a 1999 CLK 320 and for the past few months I've been chasing a problem with the car but so far to no avail. Starting to lose my marbles now so I'm really hoping someone can help.
On startup the car is fine, however occasionally when exceeding around 4000rpm the car suddenly loses...
Have just fitted some aftermarket illuminated kick strips and am now looking at where to wire them in?
I thought of piggy backing the puddle lights but found no way in to the door jam loom conduit
Must be an easier way, anybody help???
