Clk320 clicking?
Hi guys. I have a 2003 clk320 which is making a clicking sound 
, it happens when you turn the ignition on and appears to be coming from under the steering wheel. When I turn the ac on as this happens, the air starts to fluctuate (gets weak then picks up slightly) with every click, then it goes away. Here is a video

I would appreciate some input, maybe someone has experienced this before? Thanks in advance.

you will find some threads and there is also a DIY for it, if you are mech-inclined.

After reviewing the thread on the diy of getting to your stepper motors, I just have one question. The instructions by liveniceguy were performed on a c240, I have a clk320, will I run into any large problems following his instructions?

Clk 320
Luckily I'm pretty good at this stuff. It's already apart, took about 2 hours so getting it back should be a little less. I found the part for $66 for the kit so I'm changing all the levers I come across
