New CL-S 6MT
whats good everyone, just bought my 03 CL-S 6MT for $11k. Minor issues though, very low clicking sound is coming from engine, does anyone else have this problem or know what it is? And im debating between 20% tints or 35% tints. im thinking the 20s will be too dark, but do'able please give me some feed back. thanks everyone

CLS 6MT Navi
That's cheaper than an 01 with a bad tranny. Either a great deal or may need some probably pricey repairs. I thought ticking was usually the lifters. Have you checked the oil level? How many miles on this thing?

Sounds like you got a helluva deal. With that said though, let's see it because or
For the clicking, check the item shown below for clicking. It's a common problem. Purge Valve Solenoid or something. They only run about $40. Start it up and pinpoint where the sound is coming from. My is on the solenoid. Most of them click but some are louder than others. There was a recent thread where guys were talking about it effecting fuel milage as well. Check it out.
Good luck, I hope that helps!

You mean the ballast or invertor (or whatever it's called)? Look for it on that website too.

Here's a few more cheap 6spd's that i've seen... (in case anyone was interested)
Black 6spd
Red 6spd - Looks like a VERY nice deal
Another awesome deal on a black 6spd
Very clean SSM 6spd
My personal fav - SMR 6spd w/ navi
too bad they're all at least 400 miles away from me...

Wouldn't yours be considered a worthless post too? Along the same lines as my orig one? And thanks for the concern about being a noob, but I have been around since 2003 when this was ATL and ACL.com.
