BobsC63

Does anyone have experience with a good aftermarket warranty that would still cover my 2007 CLK63 Cab? My CPO is about to run out and I don't want to deal with that stupid head bolt stuff.

Or as another idea, does anyone know a good shop in SoCal that can put new head studs in for the $2000 price range?

I have looked around and have not found any aftermarket company that will warranty an AMG.

Just got one via Fidelity at Fletcher Jones Motorcars in Newport Beach. $2700 for 5 years /100k miles of powertrain only coverage. They said they had a customer come in with the exact same coverage and a head bolt problem...and they didn't even bat an eye at paying the $8500 tab.

BobsC63 was there a model year limit?

I have a two year 24,000 miles with no deductible on my CLK 63 through USAA. They will go to 36/36,000 as well. I was really suprised that it covered all of the electronics as well. Not sure if you still have to have a military connection to us USAA.

USAA would not quote me a price for SL63 because I have no military connection. There is a mandate in my state that they must offer it, but the way they get around it is to require you to also insure the car through them, and they only offer liability insurance. Still working to see if I can make that work (have full coverage somewhere else).

Doesn't matter where you buy it. Car has to be less than 10yo

I put one on my new to me 63 Cab at 22.5k in April. July after driving awhile, it needed mounts, pulleys, bushings. I'm up $1k now, and I've got 33 months left.

I've had 4 EW's from Fidelity, dealers like them, I like them, and they don't jack around. My ROI is 212% on these things, have one on CLK and wife's E90 M3 right now. Both returned >100% so far.

PM me for contact info for nice lady who sells me mine. I've shopped her, and she slays everyone. No relation, just really happy customer.
