clk

Hi everyone v. new to this. I have an 06 CLK 280 and recently it has started marking a grinding/clicking noise (it almost sounds like a a 2p coin being rolled along a wooden floor - very specific, I know) from behind the dash when I turn to the right. I've had the wheels off and cant see any...

Hi all! On my way home last night my CLK (320 CDi V6) lost power, wouldn't rev over 2.5k rpm but otherwise ran fine. I was chasing a plastic Peugeot people carrier thing so it was embarrasing that I had to back off.. I just run a scan and I have codes: P1101, P1402, P2078, P2646. So it seems...

Hi All, Before i describe my issue and seek advice, i have extensively searched multiple forums about the issue i am having but i am not entirely sure what the fault might be - i am hoping someone has faced the symptoms before and fixed the underlying issue. I have a 2005 CLK350 with the...

Hi all My 2005 CLK 200 Convertible has a major problem. The instrument cluster is completely dead and so is the switch for the roof. Central console with satnav is fine and the car drives. My local non merc indi ( a friend) has looked at it. The car did not have a fuse map so we downloaded one...

Hi! I recently bought a CLK 500. Runs good but there are some electrical (I think) problems. 1) First problem is that my front headrests don't work. Both of them, which is weird. When I press the button on the door panel I hear a click and the headrest goes down or up a couple of mm. When I...

Really hope we can share some knowledge. I love to work on cars and I've just bought a 2008 CLK 320 (V6 Diesel) Cabriolet (A209) and although it's been well cared for there are a few typical things to deal with. First question: anyone know where I can download a mechanics service manual? Thanks!!

Hi I have a Clk 208 Cabrio, All the windows and the mirrors stopped working, I saw somewhere that removing the positive battery terminal for a few mins then re-connecting it works. And it did, but I got in my car this morning and it has done it again. So I did the battery thing again, again this...

Hi all you helpful lot. My CLK was completely dead this morning. I cannot open the doors even. I have tried the spare key. Clearly an electric or battery issue. Problem is I cannot get into the car. I have tried the Blade but it doesn't 'pop' the lock. The car is 13 years old and the lock has...

Hi, I have just bought a CLK 2002 2.3, Its been bought for a charity event, where we turn the cars into crazy things then drive them from the UK to Benidorm for Charity. (We decided on Wacky Races Mean Machine) Usually the cars are then scrapped, but I like this little beast and thinking of...

Doing a track rod end yesterday I found about a third of the rusty nearside front disc shield flapping like a hinge so it could touch the disc. So I broke it off to stop the loose section getting trapped in the brakes but now want to replace the disc shield. Seems you need the disc and hub...

Hopefully a simple question... My 2005 CLK will require a Service A in 4 weeks time according to the dashboard. I have it booked for an MOT in 7 weeks time. What happens if I ignore the service warning and wait for the MOT?

Hi folks. I'm new here and looking forward to sharing tips and advice with you all. Problem as suggested in the title is with the canvas top. When closing it the fabric crumples up and so doesn't fit neatly into the `slot' of the rear screen rubber. I think the canvas may have separated from the...

Evening all, I've had a 2009 C-Class Estate CDI220 for 6 months, but have been compelled to give it to my wife. In return, she let me trade in her old Peugeot. So I've picked up a 1st Gen (2002) CLK Kompressor. And this is where my questions start! The registration indicates that it's a 200...

Hi All! I've managed to get myself into a bit of a pickle and would appreciate some help and advice if anyone is able! The cars been in my possession for about 7 months now and It's never really managed to get to operating temperature and I've suspected the likely culprit is the thermostat...

Hi all I have a 2000 CLK 320 Auto Convertible that suddenly wouldn't start last week. I decided it might be a flat battery so I tried jump starting it from my wifes car. I DEFINITELY connected the jump leads red to red and black to black but after about 30 seconds the heavy duty jump leads...

I have a 2005 CLK 200K. It is driving fine but the EML came on last week. I know nothing about engines but wanted to buy a very cheap code reader to get an idea of what the problem may be or to just reset the system. There are loads of cheap ones on Ebay but am not sure if they are compatible...

Hi all, I recently replaced the alternator with a refurbished unit and now I have an issue with the engine not ticking over smoothly when I have my lights on and certain lights are flickering - interior and rear lamp clusters. Is this a faulty alternator or maybe just a badly connected earth...
