Im back in a w209!

I had a 02 CLK55 Convertible and a 03 CLK55 Copue a few years back and loved them. I have a few cars now but missed my CLK. I just bought a 03 CLK500 as my DD. It has OEM keyless go which I thought was rare. I bought the 19" AMG Replicas and some clear lights so far. I also have a trunk lip spoiler coming. The car came with the tint and upgraded HID headlights. The car does have some issues...neither front headrest works, the turn signal arm does not stay in the "on" position and the reduce oil light comes on from time to time even thought the level looks good. I am glad to be back. Let me know if you have any suggestions!

Welcome back! Already a great choice in wheels and color of the 209...now why didn't you look towards getting back into the 55? Price point isn't too much higher...

Either way glad to have you back...

I couldn't find one for the cash I had. This is a very clean 03 with 72k that I paid $15,000 for. 3 cars and no car payments

I only notice a difference under aggressive driving. The handling for sure is a difference. Sill feels great to be back in a CLK!

Nice tint, wheels, BiX, etc. I wouldn't sweat the headrests; some members disconnect them! I hate how they go up when I move my seat (or worse when passenger does.) Maybe Glyn'll have an idea @ the oil light.

The oil light going on randomly is due to the oil level sensor dying. I had this same problem and the sensor replaced was about $400 for parts and labor. Sweet color and wheels though!

Welcome back. Issues are minor, but annoying. Good luck with it.
