Hi all. I have the option to buy a mercedes w209 2005 clk280 101k miles for £600. The engine seems to have slipped a tooth and doesnt start. The assumption is that the chain has slipped, a number of valves have bent hence the owner wants to get rid. Ive been reading about these engines...

Evening So 4,500 and 11 months on from a full B service and ATF change, the CLK tells me it needs an A service. Consequences of mainly using it for short trips...... Booked it in for an A service, but when i asked ballpark cost, was told £250 to £300. Obviously way too much for what i...

Hi new (to me) 09 reg CLK 280 and just a quick question re the C vs S transmission mode. Is it purely that S holds the revs longer or does it also change gear quicker, kick down quicker / 2 gears? Also, are there updates for the 7G box released by MB-I know other manufacturers sometimes...

Hi new (to me) 09 reg CLK280 with 7G and one of many questions Car has mixed/not all MB service history. Local trader I purchased it from gave it an oil change and level top up. How do I best find out what it actually needs (in case another level etc. is needed)? I am intending to pop...

Due to a change of direction in my business I need a commercial vehicle so I'm purchasing a discovery commercial. This clk is totally obsolete now as I have a 911 as a weekend car. In my short ownership I've sent it to the local MB indi and it was given a health check and had a new antirole...

Hi, I am going to view with the intention of buying the car in the link below on Saturday. However although I know a little bit about cars I generally always take someone that is more knowledgable with me but this time no one is available. Can any one give me some tips on things to look for...

Hi, I'm new to the forum but not new to owning a mercedes. Had a few issues with the car and only had it 6 weeks, not a good sign! Just wanted people's opinions if the following fault codes are the dreaded balancer shaft issue? They are as follows:- 0522 - Diagnosis of tumble flat intake...

So what MPG could I realistically hope to get with one of the above cars? I have used a fuel calculator and it says I could do my current journey to work which is 83 miles mostly motorway and in off peak times and it would cost me around £14 x 2 when I do the sums on my last car (Honda civic...

Evening all :thumb: I'm thinking of buying a 2009 CLK280 coupe. Are they a reliable Mercedes? Is there anything I should be aware of when buying?

We are thinking about buying a CLK cabriolet. The Audi was good and the Saab was too but the CLK was slightly swisher and we fancy a bit of swish. It seems the 280 has power higher up the revs and a 7 speed auto. The 320 has more torque lower mpg and a 5 speed auto. We tried a 320 and it...

I have just traded my 1996 E320 on a 2006 CLK280 (3.0 ltr V6 with 7G auto sports pack) and have covered only 300kms in it. I live in a hilly town and today for the first time used my CLK in left turn from a level street into a hilly street. This is something I have done many times in my E320...
