    Just bought a cls 55 amg 3 weeks ago and just started my own set of tlc and tune up. Good to see someone else working on bringing these beauties back to their prime 👍

    Glad I found this channel. Bought my CLS55 with a bad engine. And worn transmission. Full rebuild and a transmission swap later. She's fully healthy. I can't wait to see what you do to yours. The CLS is timeless.

      The CLS is indeed timeless, it's a blend of analog and modernity that you won't really find in any other Mercedes. Good luck with your rebuild, and we hope you enjoy what we have coming!

    Well produced, very informative video, keep up the great work, man! Can you tell me what was the front wheel specs when you damaged the fenders due to the faulty air spring? Wheel/tire size, ET, etc. Wheels should tuck under the fender when they slam because of the air springs going out. Did you have an aggressive offset wheel setup?

    • @Ahsanz1995
      @Ahsanz1995 Рік тому

      No, the issue was the wheels were just turned right and the fender landed on the tire itself. It was stock wheels/fitment

    So I'm planning on getting a cls. 350 2007 with 150k plus miles, this being my first mercedes would you be able to guide me as to what to look out for? The car is well kept and drives good but I don't want to endup having to change the rotors and shocks first thing I get it. Any guidance would help a ton. Love live your content!
