w215

I recently purchased a CL500, lovely car, great bang for the buck..... .....However, the back windows don't work and the battery is dying overnight. I took it to a local MB Inde who has replaced the wires in the door which I understand is a common fault due to the way the doors open, didn't fix...

Gentlemen I have loved my 2002 CL500/ W215 inspite of its ABC failings etc., but it would really confirm my decision to move up to a W216 2007 CL500 if you guys would tell me that Mercedes have improved things?

So I drove to Birmingham from Surrey yesterday and replaced the standard back boxes with twin custom back boxes from MLJ Performance. I can highly recommend them for service and product quality. They consulted me on the sound i wanted and the tips. I regret slightly not taking his advice...

Hello, I am wondering if someone can help or has done similar to myself, After having removed the ABC suspension struts and replacing them with conventional struts I have obviously eradicated the need for the ABC system. One of the ABC lines and also the ABC part of the dual abc/power...

So to add to my current list of electrical faults, now the front left side parking sensor has decided to go crazy, keeps going on then off again implying that im about to hit something every ten seconds... Also, the drivers side windows dont always automatically go up when the door is closed...

Finally after 2 years of trolling Pistonheads, Autotrader and the forums, I have finally found the W215 I have been looking for. Almandine Black with Black leather. ABC pump replaced 1 year ago. 10k of receipts and 3 owners for 4k. MPG range from 11mpg around town heavy footed to 32mpg on a...

Hello, I've not been on here for a while, and I did try a search regarding the retrofitting of the F1 style paddles but came up with nothing so bear with me... Basically I've read you can fit the flappy paddles on the W209 CLK which is a similar age etc so is it possible to fit them on the CL...

Hi guys - I 've had my 2000 CL500 two weeks now and I have noticed a strange metallic rattle from what appears to be the rear of the car. My initial thoughts were it could be the exhaust fitting because I could only hear it going over bumpy ground or under low speed acceleration. I parked it in...

Hi there, im off to Europe in a couple of weeks and I only have nav discs for UK/ROI and France - does anyone have a disc for Belgium and Germany? My car is a 2003 with the CD-rom based nav, not the later DVD one. Thanks in advance, James

Hello, my keyless go has been dead for about 6 months and I haven't really been bothered by it at all, but I have just come across a module for sale for not a bad price near me that is working. My question is, will it just "plug and play" into my 2003 CL? the part number is A2305451232 and it...

Hi, hopefully one of you guys might be able to help me out here? I'm an autospark and I've currently got a customer's 2002 CL500 in that was killing the battery overnight. I have done a forum search but can't seem to find the info I need. Initially I had about 6A drain but I've gotten it down...

Hello everybody. I was wondering if anyone on here has had the same problem (or similar), or can help me out for the reason of the issue, but recently my 03 CL500 has developed a bit of an iffy climate control. Basically if I put the fan on full power, not much happens. If i put the air con...

Hi, When doing the respray (see my other posts) I noticed the seals on the rear wings where the doors and windows meet was getting very worn... Mercedes wanted £531 for them as you have to buy a full set!!!! There was some wind noise at motorway speeds as well... Well a £0.99 sheet of 1mm...

I'm (yet again) playing the Autotrader game. Gorgeous looking, right price range, just, and not too common. Just the job. However, I am mindful of things like self levelling suspension, double glazed windows and the electric toys. Are these beautiful cars just waiting to empty bank accounts...
