wish I could help you. I've found the parts department at the local dealership to be pretty helpful with this type of info- they can look it up. I would just buy the plugs there and inquire as to the correct gap. If you don't have one nearby, just call any dealership. They never ask where I'm calling from, only the VIN number of the car, so have that handy.

I'd use a NGK Spark plug # IFR6Q-G for your CL600 (24 of them!) Gap if memory serves me right is in the .032 - check with your service dept to be sure.


Bosch and NGK are both suppliers to Mercedes. My OE plugs on my AMG CL were NGK.
