Mercedes CLK-Class CLK350 Updates

Tuesday, 21 February 2023 02:08 PM Mercedes-Benz has issued a recall for certain 2001-2011 models, including the CLK-Class, due to a potential issue with the glass sunroof panel not being properly secured, which could detach and become a road hazard. Owners will be notified, and dealers will inspect and replace the sunroof panel as necessary, free of charge. This recall is particularly relevant for Indian owners who may have imported these models.

Tuesday, 17 May 2022 02:27 PM In 2022, Mercedes-Benz recalled various models, including the 2009 CLK550, due to incorrect software configuration in control units during service repairs. This could lead to system failures such as loss of drive power or reduced exterior lighting. Dealers will update the software configuration on the affected control units free of charge. This highlights the importance of regular software checks for Indian owners of these vehicles. I think its crucial for owners to stay updated on such recalls to ensure safety.

Friday, 14 May 2021 06:37 PM A recall in 2021 affected the 2006-2007 CLK350 models due to the bonding between the glass panel and the sliding roof frame deteriorating, which could cause the glass panel to detach. Dealers inspected the glass panel bonding and replaced the sliding roof as necessary, free of charge. This issue is a reminder for Indian owners to check their vehicles regularly for such potential defects.

Monday, 09 May 2011 06:18 AM The Mercedes-Benz CLK350, particularly the 2006 model, has been noted for its transmission issues. Many owners have reported problems with the transmission, often occurring within the first 10,000 to 30,000 miles. This has raised concerns about the long-term reliability of the vehicle, especially for Indian buyers considering purchasing a used CLK350. I believe its essential to have a thorough inspection before making a purchase.

Thursday, 01 January 2009 06:27 PM In terms of design and features, the 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 came with notable updates, including standard heated seats, a six-disc CD changer, and the availability of both coupe and convertible body styles. The MSRP range for the 2009 models was between Rs. 32 lakh to Rs. 43 lakh, adjusted for inflation. This makes the CLK350 a luxurious option for those in the Indian market looking for a high-end vehicle.

Sunday, 01 January 2006 03:33 PM The 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK350 introduced a new series with V-6 or V-8 engine options and a choice between five- or seven-speed automatic transmissions. The high-performance CLK55 AMG was also available in this year. For Indian buyers, this model offered a blend of luxury and performance, although it came with a higher price tag. I think the performance features make it a compelling choice for enthusiasts.

Saturday, 01 June 2002 05:59 AM Mercedes-Benz produced the second generation of the CLK-Class from 2002 to 2009, with the C209/A209 models. This generation saw improvements in design and technology, making it a popular choice in the luxury segment. For Indian buyers, the second generation offered better reliability and more advanced features compared to the first generation.

Wednesday, 01 January 1997 11:53 PM The first generation of the Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class, produced from 1996 to 2003, was based on the W202 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. This generation included both coupe and convertible models and was known for its sleek design. For Indian buyers, the first generation CLK-Class was an introduction to Mercedes-Benzs luxury coupe segment. I believe it set a strong foundation for future models.
