Hi, just thought I'd tell you my CL65 has had a recall. They have to fit new
catalytic converters, apparently they de-laminate inside. Mine's being done
at the moment, let you know later if there is any more zing.

They were. The first ones were sold as MY 2005 in the US but 2004 in the rest of the world where production date is all that matters.

Tom, you seem like a nice guy.
I get the impression that everything I post is queried like I'm on trial.
Shaun said, didn't know they were made in 2004, that smacks of...I don't
believe you.
And then he goes on about ***!!, I didn't realise he puts this on all his threads
so I took it personally.
If my dealer says my car needs new cats, I have posted this to HELP other
CL65 owners. If your interested post a reply, but not a negative one.

Whoa there buddy, I just asked a simple question. How the in the world was I being foul mouthed? I have brought many a interesting thing to this forum and I am not here to get into it with any forum members. If you have a problem with what I said just don't answer the question simple.

Shaun, I am sorry but I did not realise you say the same thing on all your posts, I thought it was aimed at me. I am having a difficult time at the moment, most of my threads are questioned, this a mundane post regarding
cats, I thought this thread would be appreciated not questioned.
