CLS 350 CGI (2008)
Good morning everyone !

I'm quite new to the MB World, and last year, I gifted myself with a brand new 2008 CLS 350 CGI ! It had 205935 kms at the time, but actually looked really good, aesthetically and mechanically.I had a few things to work on:
- right headlight: internal motor for directionnal headlight gave up, and as it's not easily repairable, I decided to replace the whole unit by a new one
- consumables: brake discs and brake pads
- some seals and caps on top of the engine: rubber seal on the hose connecting the upper side of the radiator to the thermostat, plastic caps at the back of the top cover, and other miscellaneous things
- new rims (OEM, the 5 spokes ones in 18in)

However, as it's aging, it needs a bit more love, and parts/seals to be replaced....

Sorry if I made mistakes, I'm french and we're known for being poor english speakers :D

I have always had a soft spot for the CLS in all iterations.
Enjoy the forum and the ride. Stick around
