The back windows on the Copart Mercedes CLK320 dont work. Its a cheap fix, but labor intensive. Save yourself several hundreds and take the plunge!

You know I really hate KZfaq repair videos because half of the people are not real techs and just Google crap then decide to make a monotone video of them 1/2 fixing issues and the rest dancing or cursing at random crap. Your video is informative yet includes levity. I have been in business for 20+ years and good on you for making repairs on Mercs a bit more easy for the masses who can't afford to go to us techs.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but mike I can't wait to see what you do next. You along with some other channels I watch prove that with a few tools and some research that almost anyone can work on their own vehicles. It's just more entertaining to see you do it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Also lola is such a great supervisor. Stay safe and God bless.

Great video Mike, I’m about to follow your step by step process on my 2005 CLK55 AMG cabriolet A209 to fix the rear window regulator First thing I did I ran into trouble. Undid the 2 Phillips tip screws on the door pillar and removed the small plate and rubber seal and pulled down the door seal. Then looked for the little hook that releases the interior door panel. There is none! Maybe MB changed the system on the later cars Can you offer some advice on this or at least, some tips how I remove the panel given no release hook I am able to simply pop off the upper part of the panel but don’t want to start prying things off in case I damage something Thanks
@donaldswift2 жыл бұрын
I really appreciate your helpful video. My 2002 Mercedes 320CLK convert just needs the back window height adjusted. It goes 1/4 inch higher than the front drivers window and has caused tearing of the rubber molding when put up. Is that a much easier job than the regulator issue? I saw the tree bolts adjustment you spoke of.

I just rebuilt my rear regulator on my 1999 CL500 (C140). I have a Very good question. I dont see a connector like the one you connected for this up and down feature. Upon reconnecting the motor and rolling the window down for 10 seconds and then, up for 10 seconds (to re-train the motor revolutions). So, in normal operation when the window is up, the rear window is down about 3mm or so, which is standard while the front door is open. Then, BOTH the front and rear window go up (as it should) to create the seal. The issue that I am having is the window goes back down those 3mm and stays that way. Every time I open the door, the same thing occurs. Rear window goes up then half a second later it goes down 3mm and stays down. What is happening, and what may I do to repair this fluke? Your videos were EXCEPTIONAL and very helpful in my rebuild. Cheers on ya for that. I look forward to hearing back from you, sir.

This is how far my top gets when opening it. But it did this before the window wouldn't roll down. So not sure if a switch is there or not? Maybe it's just coincidence that this happened right after the top quit working? kzfaq.info9Wl-5BqNOwk?feature=share
