clk55
found it searching another forum... shows the Crank position sensor
as the culprit.
I took the plastic cover off my 2004 CLK55.
I am looking down the driver side between the engine and the tranny. There is so little room in here I cant see crap.
Can someome point me a little closer please.
Can I get to this from underneath the car?
TIA

I'm pretty sure he found the OBDC connector and was able to read the code indicating the Crank Position Sensor to be the problem. (right?)
I replaced mine about 2 weeks ago, it was a *****. I removed the airbox and air flow sensor at the rear of the engine, then kneeled on the engine to get at it.
I had to do it all by touch, I wasn't able to actually see the CPS.
I was able to get the inverted torx socket on a swivel adapter in from the valve cover.
I wasn't able to get at it from the side, the fuel line and some plastics were in the way
Its ALL the way in the back here:
Under/behind these plastics. All the way down on the bell housing.
