It’s a van… More importantly, it’s a Mercedes

I'm 75 and my 1999 CLK 430 is 25. She needs a suction hose...this part number..113-230-13-56-MBZ SUCTION LINE I guess you could say, "That really sucks!" (sorry)
She is the first and only good car I have ever owned and I have been nursing her along, hoping that I die before she does. She needs help. Can't find this part. It's been discontinued. They say a junk yard is my only chance but i am not familiar with procedure on pursuing that avenue. Can anybody help?
Despairing in the mountains....

…where other CLK owners should be able to help. Good luck
Im an old school forum lurker, having owned many euros (VW’s, Audi, BMW’s) and now Mercedes. I made a slightly tipsy bid on a W164 280CDI and woke up the next morning with a hangover and a new car!
I have much to learn as the dash is lit up like a Griswald’s Christmas tree 🎄
My drunk bid that was a winner!
I’m looking forward to learning lots and making other poor financial choices.

Just did airbag conversion delete with Arnott Springs all around
The Best of Mercedes & AMG




I own a 2018 W205 C63s Estate and a 2001 W210 E320 Avantgarde just clicked 100000 klms and looking to explore and learn more about these cars. Especially maintaining the W210 as it ages gracefully
Always been a Mercedes fan ever since I was younger in my teenage years dreaming about owning an AMG so I for filled my dreams when I bought the C63s Estate.
I have been lurking around unofficially when I get stuck, mostly was through google searches but I finally decided to join the forum.
Thanks for all your input

Previous cars include Mk 7.5 2018 VW Golf R, 2003 Toyota Celica GTS, Frankenstein 1991 Honda Accord 2-door with 1996 JDM H22A and manual transmission swap with brakes from a 2003 Acura 3.2 CL, lowered 2007 Yaris with a few bolt-ons (more fun than you'd think). Had a few motorcycles too. I enjoy light wrenching on my own vehicles, but with this one I think I'll leave it to the local shops. Will be taking this opportunity to let the Golf R turn into a DAZA 2.5L 5-Cyl swap project. Benz will be the daily.
Looking forward to chatting with you folks.
Little bit of a rough ride/idle from engine but thinking on doing some performance mods. Not too sure about anything though.
let me know your thoughts!

I deal with mechanical modifications and adding equipment to the W203 model.
I am also running a project of the fastest 220 CDI, which after many modifications has achieved 233 HP 560 Nm on full ecology with a Catalytic Converter and EGR.
Preparations are underway to cross the barrier of 300 HP 650 Nm.
I hope to meet similar enthusiasts here, who will be an inspiration to me and maybe I will also inspire someone to have fun with these wonderful cars

I recently leased a brand new 2024 GLC 4Matic SUV for three years, with the intention of buying it and keeping it for another 4-5 years if all goes well.
I haven't owned a car in over 15 years. My last car was a well-worn Honda Civic with over 150K miles that I drove in college. Since then, I moved to NYC, got married, had a child last year, and relocated to NJ last month.
I'm excited to learn more about this car and how to keep it in top condition.
