Choosing the right used Mercedes-Benz CLK exhaust manifold
Used exhaust manifolds vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
- State whether it's petrol or diesel
- State the engine code if known

Fitment questions
Does an exhaust manifold from a W208 CLK fit a W209 CLK?
The W208 ran from 1997 to 2002 and the W209 from 2002 to 2009, and despite sharing the CLK name these are distinct generations with different engine mountings and exhaust routing, so a direct swap across that boundary is very unlikely. The correct manifold is tied to the specific engine code rather than the generation alone, so you should match by engine code and confirm with the breaker whether the part from a W208 will physically fit your W209 before buying.
Will a CLK 200 exhaust manifold fit a CLK 320?
No — the CLK 200 and CLK 320 use entirely different engines (a four-cylinder versus a six-cylinder), which means the exhaust manifolds are completely different castings and are not interchangeable. Always match the manifold to your exact engine code, which you can find on your V5C or by asking the breaker to check against your registration.
Does the trim level affect which exhaust manifold I need — for example, does a CLK Avantgarde need a different manifold to an Elegance or an AMG?
For standard Avantgarde and Elegance models sharing the same engine, trim level makes no difference to the exhaust manifold — the same engine code means the same manifold. The exception worth noting is the AMG variants (such as the CLK 55 AMG or CLK 63 AMG), which use uprated engines with their own specific manifolds that are not shared with the standard range, so always confirm the engine code with the breaker.
Does the CLK diesel have an exhaust manifold?
Yes — diesel CLK variants, such as the CLK 220 CDI and CLK 270 CDI, are fitted with an exhaust manifold just like the petrol models, and the correct manifold must match your exact diesel engine code. Diesel manifolds are not interchangeable with petrol ones, and if your vehicle is fitted with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) or catalytic converter, confirm with the breaker that the used part is compatible with your specific emissions setup against your registration.
Can I use a pre-2003 W209 CLK exhaust manifold on a later W209 with a different engine variant?
The W209 ran from 2002 to 2009 with a facelift in 2005, and while some engines carried across the production run, running changes to engine specifications mean that the manifold must be matched by engine code rather than assumed to fit across all years. Two W209s can look identical but have different engine codes that require different manifolds, so always quote your engine code and registration to the breaker rather than relying on the year alone.
Is a used CLK exhaust manifold from any year legal to fit — will it cause an MOT problem?
A replacement exhaust manifold itself does not carry an emissions certificate, but fitting one from the wrong engine era can affect downstream components and how the system performs at MOT. If your CLK uses a catalytic converter integrated with or closely connected to the manifold, whether a used part from a different year is compatible with your specific setup is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration, as this is strong breaker-confirm territory rather than something that can be stated as a blanket rule.
