    Have had warning on CLK 'break wear visit workshop' for around 10 days. Checked brake fluid, OK also no leaks underneath. Has now miraculously has cured it's self, no warning. I think MB do this on purpose to give their garages £££ for diagnostics check.

In 1970s to late 1999 I use to drive around 35K miles a year and never had a problem with standard lights at the time. SUVs vans etc and BMW Mini are particularly bad...
