5800 miles, 10 mos. old, dealer just replaced my hood emblem today...broken, and I just noticed my brake lense on my trunk all cracked...unreal.

 

lol i hope you are joking....consider yourself lucky compared to the other ppl on this forum that their cars barely start...luckily w209s have been doing pretty good!!!(mechanically that is)

 

I have my 2004 CLK320 coupe for 18 months now and after 38K KM, I have experienced no problem at all.

So far, I had to replace one burnt light bulk and a pair of wiper inserts.

 

My 2003 CLK has almost 15K miles on it, and nothing has broken yet! Not one single thing! I better knock on wood now.

 

11,000 kms (about 6,500 Miles) and mine too is cracked.

To make matters worse, today the steering colomn height adjustment failed. It is stuck in the upper most position and I can hear the motor whiring when the lever is operated up or down. In and out is not affected.

Off to the dealer on Monday morning for some first aid.

 

Hey did you get those repaired under warrenty??? I have the same problem as you.. My hood emblem is peeling and third brake light is cracking.....

 

Really My brake light cracked too... Luckly my service manager warranted the brake light. You should take your car in.

 

i think it happens to most clks lol, i let mine alone i know its gonna happen again because i open and close the trunk frequently

i am thinking about doing a clear third brake light anyone have any info?

 

Damn it... I just noticed that my front side marker is cracked too. Okay though. Now I can get clear markers.

 

hood emblem was replaced on the spot - brake light tomorrow.

my whole "pod" on the ceiling by the rear view mirror just stopped working, mirror, interior lights, garage door opener, SOS and sunroof...all dead. brought it to the dealer on Saturday...they pulled it apart, checked fuses and found nothing. Back to the shop tomorrow so they can hook it up to "the computer".

this is getting old.

pretty soon I'm going to start demanding a CL 600 as a loaner....or maybe a honda.

 

hehe the c320 did fine for me!
btw motoguci did you say clear markers? some ppl on this w209 forum will kill for a set you have any info???

 

Get the Honda loaner.... you will only be back to garage for repairs with the SL600

 

day 2 at MB service for my sunroof/electronic "pod" with still no clue as to the cause...anyone else out there have this problem before?

the sebring convert loaner blows...i'm losing style points at the red lights & supermarket...

 

a sebring? wtf, im starting to lose respect for you already tampa. lol jp

im at 19500 miles right now so i will be joining you when i drop my car off to fix the same probs. sunroof open&close, trunk led cracked, light bulbs blew out, tranmission sound, etc. hope i dont get a sebring *crosses fingers*

 

haha i had that POS for three years (leased) before getting my clk...it was a 2001 limited edition but it still sucked and the engine blew on me 2 months before giving it back,yeah it wasnt warranted either ...*******s

 

at least i'm not the guy who brought in his s500 and got an altima...i suspect he wasn't too happy...they had so many cars in for service, they ran out of MBs as loaners.

on the head unit, they need to replace the whole unit...it took them 2 days to figure that out. won't get my car back until tomorrow. i guess i'll keep styling in my white granny convert...

 

hehe its not that bad, is it the limited with the autostick? that can be fun if u floor it let go hit 2nd gear then hit the pedal again the tires chirp really loud its the coolest thing that car ever did
sorry forr getting off topic

 

it's crap
