My 2002 W209 CLK 320 has started making the dreaded clicking noise from within the dashboard when you turn on the ignition. I've read on the forums that this a either a broken or jammed actuator (and therefore a big job) but I was wondering if:
1) you can tell if the actuators are broken or jammed?
2) anyone has experience of getting them unjammed/fixed for a reasonable price?
3) other than the irritating noise - what is the effect on ventilation in the cabin?
4) what happens if you don't fix it?
It's only just started making the noise and I read on a US forum that this can potentially burn-out the actuators if you do nothing.
I'd really appreciate any guidance you may have.
