CL Lift Points
When using a lift to raise the CL500, can anyone tell me where the lift points are? I believe they are where the rubber bumpers are on the frame, but am not sure.

All of the above. I have a friend who has a lift in his garage (actually a hangar) and I think I'll take advantage of that. One other reason is that I have a rattle somewhere which I can't seem to locate. I have taken everything out of the trunk & the rattle is still there and have also had the car on stands looking for something loose but no luck. Now I want to remove all the under body panels and have a look. Something you said got my attention with your instructions on the ATF change regarding the ABC high pressure hose being under the panel which is to be removed to do the fluid swap. I had that hose replaced under warranty and am thinking perhaps it is not positioned properly and is hitting on something. Anyway, we'll see if we can find it. I don't know whether there is any chance it being a strut as they all seem tight.

Yea, rattles are hard to find. Hopefully you'll find it with all the panels off. It could really be anything. Good luck.
