New clk500 owner

[ian62]

I did post a help message re a leaky roof yesterday, but thought I would say hello in the correct place.

This is my first MB purchase and I used this site to research the clk500 before I took the plunge, it really helped so thanks.

I was looking between the clk55 or 500 but my budget just wouldn't go to an amg. So the 500 it is. I'm really pleased with it. It's a 2005 soft top (leaky roof at the moment) 45k on the clock, it's just amazing!!

Having driven cosworths and subarus which I thought were good, this is in a different league!

Any clk owners that can give me advice on what to watch for would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Ian

Hello Ian
Welcome to the Forum

Where abouts is it coming in Ian?

Hi

It's coming in the drivers side seems to be just on the curve of the window where there is lip like seal. It's worse when you go round corner, just poured in yesterday.

It does sound like the glass needs adjusting.

Is that an MB dealer job?

Exactly the same as I had on my 55 cab but the passenger side.... Ollie at PCS changed all seals along the side and the one across the windscreen, also adjusted the roof and windows....
I also resealed the roof with the Mercedes sealer kit twice...

Never cured mine...

Thanks for that! Not what I wanted to hear, better buy that hat then!
