After I managed to bring my SLK (R170) 200 compressor through the TÜV from 2002 to 2024, I got on the rust-infested wheel runs. I was surprised that solid metal appeared when sanding off instead of more or less large holes. I only looked a lot worse, which is why I had already bought wheel treads for welding in. I don’t need them now. Before I then split the sanded parts and then to the paintrs. to give my trust Uwe + Matthias, I would like to know if anyone can give a special recommendation for a rust protection primer. I would use Fertan rust primer. The paintrs say it doesn’t matter what you take, the rust comes again and again anyway… Or is there a remedy…?

Seat heating starts on its own
Hello Forum I have a R 171 from 2005, 200 K. When I purchased the three years ago, the heating of the seat driver side was defective. It’s not tragic. I like the heating in the backrest. This morning I switched on the heating, as usual three LEDs light up, after some time this automatically regulates. In this case the LED went out after 3 seconds. New attempt: 3 seconds: off. Stay out: after 3 seconds. Where is the error ?

Diesel consumption 250 CDI with 7G +
Hello in the round, My r172 would have to be based on the 204 it platform which I could drive with 220 CDI on average on 5 liters. I now have the first 250 km behind us and watch the speed, which always moves nicely close to the 1000 rpm. The car has just over 6000 km and the average is shown to me with over 6 liters of diesel. The transmission is learningable and the engine was driven last year only 6000 km. Is there anything else?

Questions about SLK 320, good choice?
Hello, let me know from the TT forum with a few questions. Play with the idea of buying a SLK320 or a Crossfire. I found a SLK that I like very much now. Is unfortunately EZ:07/2000 and has 92,200km on it, price about 13.000€. But I’m a bit skeptical about the mileage/km performance; whereby you can expect a high life expectancy with MB vehicles (at least that’s how I heard it). Now my questions: 1. Is the price ok? 2. Is there certain in years of construction any known problems? 3. What do you think of the Fhz overall? Here’s the link:SLK320 Thank you for your answers Greeting Sascha

SLK as sole vehicle – Beginner’s questions
A friendly hello to everyone, I play with the thought to get a used SLK. I have not yet determined what kind of a person it should be, except that he should have Euro 4. On the next Saturday I have the first contact in the form of a test drive. It will be the current model. I have already sat in it. Everything quite narrow and little possibilities to put down. Besides, I have to put the seat down completely so that with my 1.86m not over the Fro Is the SLK as the only vehicle in the safe 2 person household useful. With sure I mean that no offspring comes anymore. Besides, I would need a trailer coupling for my small trailer. Homeowners know why. Would I be very pleased about some thoughts and suggestions. Greetings rudi

Central control unit Central locking SLK
Hello, I’ve been driving a Mercedes SLK for quite some time now, because Mercedes doesn’t seem to get the serial error with the tightness in the trunk area I’m looking for help in this way. It can’t be that when it rains the trunk under the carpet is running full and then the complete control unit so to speak drains off. Maybe you can help me someone else without I’m out for a new control unit with installation again 600€. I need either a schematic of this module, a partial extension or at least the indication of the corresponding resistors. It is the central control unit of the central control unit of a Mercedes SLK 230 Kom. Bauj. 98/99 Greeting cmcloud

SLK 280/300 Experiences from 200,000 km?
Hello dear forum, we are looking at a SLK 280 from 2009 with approx. 220,000 km. Facts: – private to private – checkbook – automatic – xenon – series, no tuning etc. I kindly ask for your feedback (from FL) – is there something we should pay particular attention to with the high mileage? * I am particularly concerned with experiences in the areas: —-motor —-automatic —- exhaust system —-total roof system —-light system – wear parts are of course tested – the search via I-net, forum etc. did not give any answers – I am aware that not many can show such a high mileage Many thanks in advance

Amature cover and leather door panel. Experiences.
So far, it has been quite rare to see fullheathers with beautiful seams on the amature board. Why? It can’t only be on the price? It looks really noble especially at the SLC and is not comparable with the standard plastic. Who of you has experience with it? Cleaning, care and effect in the case of sun exposure. Thanks for your opinions.

Renew/repair SLK inner colors
Hello guys, I’ve added the R170 in blue and an interior version of Scharz-Sand. Now I noticed a few places where scratches are on the sand-coloured surfaces and the black primer shines through … My question now to you where I get a suitable color replacement. Something like a paint pencil would be awesome but I don’t think there is one for it or? At least a spray can? Would be grateful for any idea. THX @ all
