2008 clk63 black series
New Black Series Owner
Hello all. New owner here. Need some help. Car needs some TLC it sat for a bit. 2008 black series. 16k miles. My observations/questions:
1) car needs an alignment bad. What are the factory alignment, coil over and ride height specs? Curious what the rebound.comp should be also.
can't find these anywhere.
2) strong smell of gas when tank is filled up to full. It goes away after a little driving. Seems to be an issue with many MB from this era.
3) need new tires. What are people putting on these cars?
4) anything top of mind I should
worry about or address?
car is cosmetically great but it’s been sitting. Previous owner should have driven it more thanks!!

the smell of gas is due to the plastic built housing on the fuel pump sender (driver side), its DIY if you care to do so
