2000 CLK 320
Instrument Cluster Question

Does anyone have any information on how to get the speed to show up on the digital dispay of the instrument cluster?

MB Dealership in Japan said it is not possible with the w208's.

OEM Parts direct contacted thier MB point of contact and they said it is not possible.

I have a 2000 430 Cab and can not access this funtion either. Works on 03 203. I don't believe this is on 2000.

Check out this thread I started

I guess it is an added feature for 2001's and up. I need to find out why and if it is just a matter of a firmware upgrade because the Comand seem to be the same.

Yesterday I found a 2000 CLK with the option. Seems that late year model 2000 vehicles have the option. I am still trying to find out what the difference is and what can I do to my vehicle to obtain the same option.
