Being experienced from my son's newly acquired 209 CLK220.
During daylight driving he has noticed the parking sensors don't work, there is also an EML on the dash which is intermittent.
However, During his nighttime driving the parking sensors work as tge should, plus the EML stays off. He had it scanned and its pointing to the dash instrument cluster. Possibly needs sorting in the earthing mother board.
Question here, is there a company that service the clusters.
Many thanks

Thank you for the links. He's contacted one of them.

I was chatting with my son this afternoon and he said there was no issues at night, just a flickering on the green indicator warning light in the cluster when turn left sometimes. Day driving sends it into safe mode. I told him to turn the lights on during daylight driving. He said it still goes in to safe mode. Weird!

Daylight sensor on the dash might be in play then.
