2006 CL55 AMG
Hello from Allen Texas

I have been lurking for a few months checking out all the great info. I bought my wife a 2006 CL55 AMG with 72000 on the od for her birthday.
We have put over 11000 on it to date and absolutely love the car. I will be posting a few pic on repairs such as brakes , cooling fan replacement, and Keyless go button repair. I have an extensive background in fabrication,hydraulics, engine and transmission building and have built record setting cars, boats and airplanes. I was a NHRA crew chief for a couple years. I look forward to posting my thoughts on the CL55 AMG as well as learning more from others. This forum is a great tool! Thanks all and safe driving!
