Hello everyone…. I drive a SL350 BJ 9/2004 and have a problem in these cold days. From the area of the ashtray and at the driver’s seat right at the center console comes ice-cold air, so strong that my right leg is constantly cold and the aluminum decor is also permanently ice-cold. Have had the car already to the rep. at DC, there was a little sealed, but it did not bring anything and I was told that more could not be done. If someone has perhaps the same problem or had it and got rid of it???

Hello in the round, I happen to have fallen a 450 SLC 5.0 over my feet. The car has an interesting history and has been cared for so to speak from 1st hand and always with MB staple. The color (inkarotmetallic) scared me first, after sleeping over twice I find the color now sucky. Does any of you have tips? Does the aluminium motor possibly cause problems? The mileage is 130,000 km. Greetings to all

Hello municipality, first of all I would like to introduce myself briefly: last year I made the 40 full. We live with two white 4beiners in Rheinhessen and at Christmas I gave my boss my dream car (55 of course needed). During the test drive the seat massage worked – but the seat heating (seat driver’s seat) did not work. When we picked up the vehicle it did the seat heating (after repair) – but (how else could it come) the massage not more. The diode stays on for about 6 seconds (yes, I’ve already read in) and then goes out again. Now I come to the core. I wanted to pull the appropriate fuse to “reset” the pump – maybe it’s because of it – and look at the fuse placement plan. It is present, but fixed with some glue pad in its fold. Without destruction I can not fold it. Someone knows where I get a backup plan as a download. e – or can someone email me one? Thank you very much.

Hello Sl friends My SL will wake up from hibernation next month and I want to further upgrade my interior. 2 years ago I bought the 2005 Sl 500 cheaply only unfortunately it was not treated carefully so I had to renew some. The bright alpaca was equipped with bright silver interior which, in my opinion, was very low in contrast. Performed work. MOPF AMG Tacho 2014er Performens steering wheel with AMG paddle tacho hood leather 2010er Interior Wasserdru ck process carbon optics shift lever with shift bag grey against black changed foot mats SL 65 AMG entry rails safety belts grey against black changed (passenger is still installed for a week) arm pads Alcantara (very pleasantly just in summer when you have the arms free) seats new reference 2 colours ( Alcantara / leather ) on 31.03 in Stuttgart Oh you know when you have written all this down first how crazy you are but for me the R230 is a length r planned investment I will not change so fast

Hello! I have a question for you! And I would like to get a SLK 200/230K! What would I have to plan there, if he is about 4-5 years old and can have up to 70,000km on it? What would be a fair price??? And what are the typical mistakes of the SLK?? I have to reckon with what reperatures/”purchases” if he ran about 60,000-70,000km? What is the difference between turbocharger and compressor? Would you be nice if you could help me! Greetings Mi ii

Hello, I would like to address with a special request to all forum members, especially those with SL experience. Is it possible to install an LPG car gas system into an SL R129 ? The question arises because the usual installation location of the tank is the wheel pit. Exactly there is probably a part of the top control in the R129. Is that true ? Alternatively, a cylinder tank in the trunk would be conceivable – at least in theory. I do not want to start a dispute about the meaning of LPG in a luxury car. I am well aware that the fuel costs in this category do not represent the main share – especially since an SL is rarely used as a everyday vehicle for long distances. With best star greetings Sven

The electro-hydraulic braking system has been installed in various Mercedes vehicles. As far as I know, only in actual SL. I don’t know if that’s true. As far as I’ve heard, this has obviously not proven itself. Why, why etc.? Does a forum member know about it? Which vehicles have this and when the system was installed (possibly years of construction), thank you for answering my question quickly! Admiral11

Hello !!! Got a problem with my 500 SL built in 1992. Engine runs at idle and on switching position D restless from time to time. If engine warm, partly in the lower speed range with slight acceleration uneven, as if it would not run on all cylinders. At higher speed from approx. 2000 it runs quite normal. Mercedes Benz finds nothing !!! Maybe someone can give me a tip. Greetings Jochen

Hi guys, I’m actually from the Porsche corner and have been thinking about buying a SL63 AMG as a fun car for a long time. After watching the new SL R231 live, I really have to be that I like the “old” SL R230 much better! It looks kind of more modern and racy. When I look at the bonnet of the new one, I always think the designer was bedrunken! The old one looked better from the other sides (back, side). Now to my question e. I wanted to know how you think about it. I ask for your vote! Thanks and greetings from Bärlin!! The city with no major airport! Outlowz

Hello together, I wanted to introduce my SL63 and the latest modifications. I have converted the ambient lighting to 12 colors. The control continues to work via the speedometer. The brightness is significantly higher and the interior looks fresher. In addition, I have lowered the ABC chassis by Star Diagnosis. Who is interested in something like this can be contacted. I am to be found in Cologne.
