Hi Guys
Hoping someone will be able to help me out on this one. A friend has a CLK230K coupe, which he drives like he stole it. Sadly last night whilst coming off a roundabout bouncing on the rev limiter, the main bearing on the supercharger impeller shaft let go, impellers disintegrated and...
Hi All
Mrs M came home from work today and as we were chatting over tea, she mentioned that her brakes were making a grinding noise. Now I immediately thought worn pads, as you do but was bothered why the wear sensor did not indicate anything.
So took it to the end of the road - really loud...
There is a little rust coming through the from arches.....
And a bit on the pillars port and starboard!!
The Mrs loves it.... I want to get the rust done as much as possible this summer... might have to investigate the extent of the rust underneath, and if bad replace the wings, or...
Hi. Has anyone here ever experienced this : The Front brake pad is worn ONLY on the driver (right hand) side. Pads were changed ~ 6-7,000 miles ago. Normal use. But upon investigating a grinding noise from brakes, found that the right side pads were down to ~20% and thebrake disc/ rotor is so...
Hi. Was wondering if anyone could give me some input on a problem I'm having.
I've just fitted a new stainless steel resonator (plus piping) to replace my stuffed old one on my '01 CLK230K along with a Remus exhaust. Fuel consumption to that point was quite bad, averaging 14.5 -15 l/100 km...
Hi,
For those who have a w208 CLK 230k (or C230k), possibly facelift versions only.
I would be most grateful if you would; start your car from cold, select MPG "After Start" and let me know what the average reading is for the first minute or so.
If you could also make sure the car is in...
Hi,
Question for the CLK 230k W208 owners...what MPG do you get? (Town/motorway driving)
Also, is there anyway to show the current MPG, rather than the "After Start" MPg?
I'd like to ask for opinions from forum folk about possible upgrades, pros and cons. Different plug options, HT leads..... CLK 230 K, 2000.
This relates to a misfire of cyl. No4. and i'm trying to eliminate the cause.
Any other suggestions would be welcome though probably best posted on...
Hey.
I've got a 1999 CLK230K. My problem is that the supercharger is engaged at once i start the engine(is not supposed to be engaged before rpm>2200). If I restart the engine a couple of times the problem is gone. It lasts until the engine is cold again(a couple of hours). Sometimes the...

Hi guys,
Wondering if anyone can help?
My CLK is in mint condition, apart from the grotty rusty wheel bolts that really let the car down!
Someone on ebay is flogging 16 x chrome alloy bolts for £33, which seems like a good deal to me.....however, before I go & buy a pack of 16 potentially...
Hi There,
I'm new here but have searched and couldn't find what I am looking for.
I have obtained a Year 2000 CLK230 Kompressor (Yes, it's not new but only 18k miles genuine). From what I can see it has no telephone pre-wiring in it, however it does have the steering wheel buttons. IE...

Upon removing the kompressor plate I found the plugs were located behing some...
