Spring Pad Question and What Wing is this?
I was wondering if any of you know the correct part number for Spring pads #1? This is what I got from benzworld:
210 321 0184 5mm
Correct?
Also, what kind of Wing is this? I believe is MH-Dezent, but I cannot find it on the web
Thanks!
there is no 1 Dot spring pad for the CLK, so yes, you would use a W210 pad. As long as that is a 1 dot pad, it will work perfectly fine.
I can dig up my receipt to check the part number when I get back home if you are interested, but yes, it is a part that starts with # 210....
There was a previous discussion on the forum about the spoiler, and I think the outcome was that the spoiler wasn't really produced for resale (or no longer produced).
search the forum for more exact results...
Front
5mm ----- pad #1 210 321 01 84
9mm ----- pad #2 210 321 02 84
13mm ---- pad #3 210 321 03 84
17mm ---- pad #4 210 321 04 84
23mm ---- pad #5 210 321 05 84
Rear
5mm ----- pad #1 210 325 01 84
9mm ----- pad #2 210 325 02 84
13mm ---- pad #3 210 325 03 84
17mm ---- pad #4 210 325 04 84
210 - Identifies chassis
321 Identifies front
325 Identifies Rear
0X - Designates the thickness
CLK 430 current set up F-#4, R-#3
CLK 55 current set up F-#3, R-#2

CLK spring pads start with W210, because that's what the CLK uses (and the 1997+ W202).

I think since it's for CLK, the first three number should be 208 instead of 210.

There's no 1-dot spring pad for the CLK? You're using one, aren't you? So I think there is one.

if you go to the part department and ask for a 1 dot pad for a CLK, they will say, smallest they have is a 2 dot.
but, these pads are interchangable between various chassis, you can use the one that is techinically assigned to the E-class.
Nick, your 430 comes with 4 dot front, 3 dot rear (most likely), so anything less will lower your car. the thinner the pad, the lower it will be...
ride will be a little harsher, but not by a whole lot... i'm on 1 dot pads, and i still have all my teeth...
I think I have #1 spring pads all around on mine. Is this the proper setup? Should I have #2 front and #1 rear?
but, i don't think there would be any adverse effect of having #1 pads all around...
if you want to follow the factory settings, then you should have the fronts as 1 dot higher than the rears...
My CLK came from the factory with #2 all around. Not "front 1 dot higher than the rear".

That's not true. There is a formula used (it's in the EPC) that lists all the options available on the car. To find which pads and which springs were fitted to each car, each option code is assigned a "point value". If you take all the point values for each option installed in a given car, this total value is compared with a chart which lists which spring and which spring shim (called "pads" here) is used.

I wonder what kind of added options would warrant different pad sizes?

Pretty much... nearly all of them! I can print the list out if you're interested. But Bose adds a few points... xenons add a few points...phone system adds a few points... and so on.

no need for the list, but thanks for the offer.
now... the final questions... Where do I get a set other than going to Mercedes? I want #1 all around for my 01 CLK430.
Thanks,
Rob

Does having dot 1 pads all around makes the car sit lower in front, higher in the rear?
Rob, you've seen them at my place... I think we're out of #1 right now though.
