CL55 AMG - a few questions

I have just seen 2001 Mercedes CL55 AMG and have some questions about it.
How the massage in the seats works? I pushed some buttons "+", "-", "pulse" and I only heard the voice inside the seats like switching something but there was no any massage or pulsation. The owner told me that it 100% works but he didn't know how to start it (he was a car trader). The milage is 100 000 km and It costs 12500 euro. Is it worth to buy? 6-gears transmission and 380PS

Push pulse to start the massage function. If you don't feel the air bags in the seats inflating and deflating you have an issue.

Maybe I have to do something before pressing "pulse" like starting the engine, closing the door or something like this? By the way is it expensive to repair?

12500 is too much for the pre facelift CL55, try the website www.autouncle.dk here you can browse between the best prices in Europe.


For 12500 EUR you can almost get the faclift version with 500 BHP which is much better!

Push pulse and then after a couple of minutes you will feel the massage function activate to a level you can feel.

Never tried it with the ignition off/door open. Takes a min or two to feel and I only used it twice as it feels a little weird!

Car will have a 5spd transmission too, not a 6spd.
