Hi Keyhole.. The manual says I have to return to dealer to have the service a & b reset!
I tried to find where to input my model CLK 500 convertable 2005. Could not figure out how to do it. Couldn't find a link to that information
Turn the key to position 1, press the mileage reset button 3 times and you should hear a beep. Use the up down buttons on the steering wheel to scroll through the menus. You should be able to reset the service indicator from there.

Regarding reset, it may be 'slightly' different for your model/year. Read through this sticky on this topic
Hi Keyhole,
Just bought 2003 CLK500 last summer and the mileage is 45000ml, the previous owner has given me all the service recept done on this car and the service B was done at around 43000ml and last weekend the car had 48500 ml on it and I changed the engine oil and filter. When I drained the oil and measured it, the car had 8.8 qrt and the engine level show OK. Then I filled 7 qrt of new oil and the level also show OK so now what is the correct capacity of the oil, should I add oil when the level show OK? please advise.
Hi Keyhole,
On the cluster display, I think 7 quarts is the right capacity for this CLK 500 and on the cluster display shows engine oil level OK. I have an engine oil leak at the back of the engine before I changed the oil and I assume 8.8 quarts caused this leak. I will add 1/2 quarts as per your advise.
Do yourself a favor, save yourself a whole lot of trouble and time... Purchase a filter wrench for removal of the oil filter
along with a topsider fluid suction tool at any boating supply store...
After removal of the old filter and replacement of the new filter element and o rings...
Stick the topsider plastic suction hose down the CLK oil dipstick, pump up the topsider, open the suction valve and just let the topsider vacuum the dirty oil out of your crankcase...
Once the old oil is removed, just replace with fresh 0w40 in the case of the CLK500...
Simple proceedure, takes about a half hour and you don't even have to get your hands dirty...
This is by far the easiest way to change oil on your CLK...
i have a topsider from my old MB (SL320), now i have a CLK55 Cabriolet with no "Dipstick" so where do you suck the oil out of? Anyone have a picture or diagram?
