Hey I saw your tread you were talking about with your uncles ml about headlights, I have an 04 CLK 55 AMG and I guess previous owner put aftermarket HELLA HID headlights, I'm trying to find new ones do I get ones with hid build in of the ones that are for halogen? Because when I find most headlights like spyder, they come with hid kid(xenon) but say they're not compatible with OEM Bi-xenon only with halogen, so how do I find out if they guy before me or something had original bi-xenon or halogen and converted to HID like the after market hella ones. Inside the car I have the option for headlight washer but I have an after market bumper so don't have use for it.

I'm a car enthusiast who's moving forward into the realm of the MBZ! Currently in the market for a CLS55 AMG! (so, If ya know a guy...^^)
Previously owned everything from the 4cyl imports, V8 muscle, BMW 540i (I pushed up to M5), Audi B5 S4, and various trucks and SUVs.. and I've loved every one of them for what they were.
Now im moving up into the Benz world and hoping to find a great car, and good friends along the way!
My name is David and I purchased a 2009 C63 AMG about 1.5 months ago. The car was purchased with 61,000 miles. Mods so far are Summit Racing X pipe (Resonator and 2nd cat delete), rear carbon fiber big fin diffuser, a Carbon Fiber Gods Hand front lip, Michellin 275/35/18 AS3+'s, and smoked side markers.
Future plans include ROW Airboxes with AFE dry filters and the EC V6 tune.

Howdy. My name is Rich. I live in SW Florida where I can always drive my MB without snow, ice, or salt to deal with on the roads!!!! Lots of sunshine to affect paint and interior and tires, but it's all worth it. Am without a Benz right now. Have owned three, including an amazing C36AMG. I am negotiating now on a CL65.
Just want to introduce myself to the w140 forum. My name is Slim (nickname). My Father owned a '93 500sel since '98. It was one of his many cars which he rarely drove. He meticulously took care of it extremely well, maintenance record up-to-date and it was primarily his pleasure car on the HWY.
He passed away in 2012 and I'm technically the 3rd owner. Everything works and is stock. It has 102,xxx now. This is now my project car still in progress.. the goal is to bring the car back to life in pristine showroom condition.
I just recently dressed her up with some 20" Brabus Monoblock III's on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires 255 / 35 / 20 all around, no spacers. It took me over 10 years to find the wheels, finally got 'her done.
Hello everyone!
My name is Alina, I'm from Tbilisi, Georgia (country Georgia, not the state ). Owned a lot of different cars - a Toyota Yaris, a Kia Koup, a 2013 BMW 420d, a 2013 CLA200 AMG line, and I've finally ended up with a 2006 CLS55 AMG... don't ask me why... or how it happened, long story Now I've ended up with this amazing car, with a million miles on it, and that many problems. Looking for your help to solve at least some of them myself, without taking it to the dealership (they are crazy expensive in this part of the world). Spend lots of time driving back and forth between countries, and loving the powerful engine and the comfort.
Thanks in advance for the patience with newbies like me
Hi everyone - I'm located just north of the NY border in southern Quebec. I am waiting for delivery of my new-to-me 2014 C350 4Matic sedan. Seems a bit of a rare bird as I can't find reference to it on the US-based sites. This is my first Mercedes, after having owned a few VW's and a Saab. Looking forward to hanging around and learning about this machine. Cheers!
Hello everybody, my name is Windu, from Evanston IL. I just bought my first Mercedes last week, a 1986 300 SDL Turbo from my uncle. It has 250,000 original miles, in overall good running condition. I plan to learn basic maintenance from all. Thank you!
je m'appelle Pascal, j'ai 39 ans et je possède une CLK 200 KOMPRESSOR de 2004 BVA 5 qui a un peu plus de 275000 kms et j'habite en FRANCE, en Bretagne dans le Finistère (département 29) entre Quimper et Lorient.
Merci pour tous vos futurs renseignements et bonne journée !
I have been a Mercedes Benz fan for some years now but I didn't relaize how in love I was with MB until I sold my first. My first MB was a 2011 ML 350 4matic. I made the major mistake of selling that vehicle for a new truck. Within a week I had major regrets. Nothing could compete with the luxury and quality. My next purchase was a C300 Sport 4Matic. This has eased the regret I have felt for the past year. Soon I will be buying another ML 350. I have test drove newer models such as the GLE but nothing compares to my first MB. (Sentimental value) I had a lot of great road trips/ memories in that vehicle and I will find another identical model. Mostly I am here to learn as much as I can and help out anywhere I can.
I am looking at how and what I can do to upgrade my C300. ( I have the old set in the dash screen and I would like the flip up screen) It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction as I am new to forums. Thank you all so much!
P.S. I enjoy IMSA racing. (Mercedes won the Bubba Burger Grand Prix in its class early April!) I'm from Michigan but I live in both Missouri and Michigan. My dream car is a Mercedes-Benz AMG GTR.
Bought my first MB 08/2016, Slid into an on-ramp curb @ 35-40 mph in 03/2017, here to seek help and record my repair progress. Currently looking to fit C63 wheels. WTB
I am an international graduate got my job recently . My whole life wish to buy a Mercedes. I did my ground work and found it logical and ideal for me to buy Pre-owned Merc Benz C350. I want to know the pros and cons of buying a pre-owned MB. Please help !! TIME SENSITIVE. Thanks for any kind of help.
Hi everyone,
My name is Oge and I just bought my first benz c300 2008 model. It is indeed my dream car and I am just getting used to it. I decided to join here to learn from your wealth of experience. Thanks.
Hello all,
I'm a new member from the Dallas area. I have long been interested in buying an older AMG (C63, E55, or E63 for the most part, budget around 25K) but would like to learn more about the various mechanical issues and pitfalls to avoid when looking at these cars. Could someone please point me to some threads where I could learn more about these topics? I want to educate myself before making any buying decisions. Thanks!
Hello everyone! I owned a Mercedes in the past which turned out to be a lemon. After swearing-off Mercedes and vowing that I'd never buy one again, I fell in love with a Mercedes c230 Kompressor that was a fantastic deal! During the first year of owning, I've had multiple repairs. I will try to post about the current repair in the forum here.
2009 Mercedes Benz S550, 1988 MB 560SEL, 2007 Ford Expedition EL
First time here...
Hey Everyone- new here to MBWorld- I purchased my 2009 S550 two years ago and it's the nicest car I've ever owned (although I have had 3 other Benz's but this is by far the nicest.)
I just recently purchased 2 classic W126 560 SEL's and my wife wants to know why. The first is a 1988 in Smoke Silver and a real nice car and I am having new hydraulic shocks and accumulators put in as we speak and also a SLS flush. This car only has 103K miles and is near mint. The other is a 1991 560 SEL in dark grey and needs alot of TLC including new paint. I am including photos of my S550 as well as the other 2 that I have. There one photo of all 3 cars in the driveway and it's such a cool shot!
Not sure what to do with the 1991... considering whether to keep and restore it or sell it as is and let someone else do the work. Any ideas or comments will be helpful as well as trusted resources in CT as to restoring the car, if I decide to go that route.
New member. Own a 1989 300E. Am interested in swaping parts since I have several new OEM parts and sometimes need other specific items. Anxious to hear from others who own this same vehicle. Thank you.
