@Mackdadae These engines (nor turbo or supercharged engines) needed head bolts. You're thinking of the M156 (NA 6.2L V8 from AMG). This car doesn't have that issue.
@Mackdadae… You might be referring to the M156 6.2 liter engine (normally aspirated)of this era… depending on who you talk to it may or may not have had head bolt issues… some folks changed them out of an abundance of caution. This beautiful example of a car has the M275 6.0 liter engine and I’ve never heard of head bolt issue on it.

@Mackdadae from my understanding the 2 issues on the CL65 are the coil packs and issues with the suspension. On this car neither are an issue. I haven't read that CL65 suffer from head bolt issues.
I've heard mention on other turbo and supercharged Mercedes that the head bolts need to be replaced… Do you know if that's been done on this motor?

Good Morning! Final day of the auction. I'm here for any questions and if you're local I'm available to show the car in person- she's a stunner in this color. Happy Bidding!
@Reillymc I didn't ask the dealer specifically about the windshield when I purchased it. They mentioned that they replaced it before I bought the car. Looked like an expensive replacement.... There is a receipt with the car from a Virginia annual inspection so maybe it was cracked and failed inspection with the state but I'm not sure. No cracks or chips now - looks great.
hi, why did the windshield need to be replaced?

Adding date codes for the tires as well - 26/21 front and 36/21. The tires have <1k miles on them (nubs all around still :) thanks!
Good morning! Uploaded underside photos, service records from the coil pack(s) replacement along with service check up from the dealer. Also uploading receipt ($510) to replace the main battery which was struggling to maintain a charge on my trickle charger and needed replacement. At this point everything is done on the car and she's all ready to go! Happy bidding!
So far someone is going to get a amazing deal on a clean V12 car...next few days should be interesting

Good afternoon! Looking forward to the auction and here for any questions. I'll be uploading records, VMI and underside photos shortly. Both coilpacks were replaced less then 50 miles ago at my local MB dealership (Ray Catena) for a cost of ~$5,800 so that's all done. Here for any questions otherwise. Thank You!
