Potential newbie
I am considering a GLK , I am assuming it will last longer than my Q5, which is about to be lemoned as the 3rd transmission in 2 months is about to be installed, One of the main reasons I didn't go with the GLK was that the Q5 backseat was roomier, is the back seat really a squeeze for two people, also is there much handling difference between the 19 and 20 in wheels, I also hope dealing with MB has to be better than dealing with Audi, if the GLK lasts longer than a week without an issue, I guess I am ahead of the game. LOL
I only have had the Q5 in my possession for about 2 weeks out of the 2 months of ownership, they are truly a bunch of *******s over at Audi, dealer wise and corporate, but this week hopefully it all ends as Audi realizes that the vehicle should have been replaced about a month ago, now under the lemon law it is my choice and I will choose to run with the money!

Questions GLK
What is AMBIENT LIGHTING??? and with the BI XENON LIghts, is it true when you make a turn the lights turn with you???? Also does anyone have the running boards and what do you think of them??? tx Dan

Yea bixenon have swivel function where xenons rotate left/right as you drive thru curves...very nice function.
There are also separate lights that shine when you turn blinker on or make a turn at low speed. For example, it'll shine onto driveway, so you can see a bit better while turning. This function is common with many cars where left/right fog light comes on, but GLK has dedicated lamps.
And yea...running boards are a pain. They are purely for aesthetic purposes unless you are under 5 feet. They looked nice on the showroom car, but you really would have to change the way you get in/out of the car.

I have the running boards. I didn't want them, but the vehicle had everything else I did want....agree they are a pain, and do require changing the way you enter and exit.

Running Boards
What seems to be the problem with having the running boards, I think it is too late to take them off my order...do they really look that bad????

For me, this is a small annoyance on an otherwise wonderful vehicle. On my Iridium Silver GLK, the running boards look fantastic.
