  • SHOCK in the middle of the night… (red glow plus beeping)

    Hello, I didn’t think anything bad on the A3 last night when I drove towards the FFM…had about 220KmH on it, when suddenly my roof operation flashed red and a beep was heard (info : The roof was too). After about 5 km then on the stand strip and pressed the roof operation down for a short while, because I thought, “I didn’t want to risk the risk of opening the roof”. Not that the thing is still standing on half the opening. ik engine sounded and the light went out and the beep muted. Do you know the mistake?? I have to say that, strangely enough, yesterday the trunk went a little harder (two tried) when I wanted to store the barbecue equipment. Normally the trunk goes very easily. MfG Sven

  • EZ and BJ = 1999 but model year = 2001

    Hi, I found a SLK on mobile.de, which I would like very much myself with automatic: [http://suchen.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?…]my SLK?[/url] a) in general, what do you think of this? What can it cost maximum? b) how can this be that the car EZ/BJ 1999 is a facelift model and should come from the model year 2001. I asked the seller this question and he scanned his invoice on which the model year was confirmed, according to his information it was a press vehicle from DaimlerChrysler Many greetings and thanks Andreas PS Need your opinion as quickly as possible, as the VK will hand the car over to Daimler on 8.6 at the latest, unless he can sell it beforehand

  • Is that just show?? Mercedes workshop…

    Hello have a real professional-connaissance question Right now I am really speechless and got to deal with the fear when I was in a Mercedes workshop today…I find a complete rip off, and the error is in my opinion a wrong diagnosis of those. Mistakes of my SLK 200 (no compressor) Bj 2000 (before the facelift): *Key pure, at the first switching position people all instruments quite normal BUT at once the fan goes on and if I want to start it in the second S stop position, he should start normal white, what he does not do !!! (Total rest in the last switching position when trying) If I go back to a switching position, everything will continue to run as normal as the fan and try again then completely blocks the second switching position. The answer of the WERKSTATT: engine control unit has a wobble jam…SINCE SOLUTION a new must be coded and built and that for 1700 € !!!! This can not be…er sprin That happens 1-2 times only in the month, where he does not start, after a few attempts it always works. Please help me… Mfg Sven

  • Which SLK?

    Hello my father has been thinking about getting a SLK for a long time. He has already done a test drive with the R170 and 163hp (200k), which was a bit too slow for him. He himself is currently driving a C320 V6 MOPF and the same engine is available as much I know in the R170. He still varies between the 230k and the 320. What do you think is better? And wouldn’t it be worth considering getting the successor than 350? I have already seen a SLK which rusted in quite many places (yes, the brown plague). The criteria are that he must have an automatic, as well as climate and the R170 the MOPF version from 2001 (do I believe??)! Can you help me with this? Thank you

  • SLK 200 -Automatic pro&contra

    Hello, I would like to buy an older SLK and don’t know me so well with Mercedes anymore – the models from 1998-2002 would be up to 11000€ in it only about engine variants say SLK 200 with 136hp with or without automatic. or like the 230 compressor, I have no experience about that. My question is, because so far I drove CRX Targa and that with the automatic was really too lame, whether the smallest SLK with automatic would be too slow and should take it rather as a hand switch. In general, I’m an automatic fan but what’s the difference to the manual circuit, no idea-In any case, with the Honda it was huge (it was also all much older) Mercedes Automatik is probably one of the best in the world.In addition, you can assume that automatic models will last a little longer, right???I’m actually anything but a racer and just want a good everyday car that also in the emergency car ll times has a little more pressure than the 1.6 he Honda -2 liters are not too little. At least I am very grateful about a little decision help. Of course I know all this is very relative and everyone has his preferences only with older models it is more difficult with test drives. Greetings FRank

  • AMG GT Roadster Edition 50 battery defective

To the original battery; or 2. To the delivery time the car does not want to leave standing until Christmas. Thank you for your help

  • R171, which engine 350 or 350 sports motor

    Sorry to interrupt again. Since there is hardly any offer from the SLK AMG55 R171 and then mostly Japan reimports which have already been evaluated here and made recommendations. I am now looking at the superior in the direction 350 or 350 sport motor. Question, which engine would the experts prefer here. Unfortunately my color is silver and so I found a few SLk350 which have about 55 thousand km on the speedometer and from 2005 to 2007 are then 2 with sport motor both 2010 g ebaut. One with 10.tkm one with 51tkm, private sale and around 23000€, the question arises, the price is not a bit excessive. This choice is also not very nice. It would be very friendly to get well-founded opinions here. Or should I practice in patience and see if what comes after. beautiful Easter still…

  • Endlch, my first SLK is DA !!!

    Since yesterday I finally have a SLK! It is my dream car, 170 model, 230 compressor , year 99, 280,000 km, black, deep, hard !!! inside black/red. However a problem: from 120 km/h the warning lamp lights up for the cooler ! When I drive then again under 120, it goes out again. Besides: from 180 he starts to jerk something……. Does anyone have an idea what that can be ? I am grateful for all the clues.
