V8 M113 (V8 M113) — better than factory
Engine rebuild and replacement engine V8 M113 — professional reconditioning for Mercedes: CLK 500. This petrol engine delivers 218 to 306 hp depending on the variant. The V8 M113 is one of Stuttgart's most iconic naturally aspirated V8 engines — installed in nearly all classic Mercedes-Benz V8 model lines. Timing chain wear after high mileage, piston damage under sporty use, and bearing wear are typical weak points of this engine. MIK Motoren not only repairs it — it also improves it specifically so this engine can easily handle the next 200,000 km.
MIK upgrades — why this engine lasts longer
The overhaul of MIK engines includes not only the replacement of all wear parts, bolts, and seals, as well as the machining of all sealing and running surfaces. Components that are known to have factory weaknesses and that limit the engine's lifetime are also specifically replaced. The following MIK upgrades drastically extend lifetime:
- Timing chain (reinforced) — Increased timing chain wear is a classic run-up issue on the M113: the chain design and guide rail geometry limit lifetime in the original version. MIK uses a modified chain design with revised guide rail geometry — maximum lifetime, even under full load.
- Reinforced pistons — Under sporty or high-performance driving, the M113 shows piston damage in the ring zone. Oil consumption, loss of compression, and declining performance are the result. MIK uses modified pistons with reinforced rings and a specially honed cylinder surface.
- High-quality bearing shells — All components are precisely measured and tuned for lifetime and performance. The precisely adjusted bearing clearance ensures especially smooth engine operation — even for the sporty driver.
