Hello, come out of the C-Class warehouse and plan to switch to a SLK. Mercedes Benz SLK 200 special model “Carbon2Look Edition” Obsidanblack metallic leather Nappa black/designo titangrey Pearl special model carbon look (airscarf, seat heating, AMG outside and inside,) – mirror package (important?) – direct steering (I always had) – windscreen wiper with rain sensor – comfort package (7G-Tronic PLUS, Adaptive driving beam assistant, Intelligent Light Syst., Parktronics) – Becker Map Pilot – Comfort control of the Variodach – interior light package This is how it lasts for the first time. What is important what is missing or what is too much?

I sold my SLK 200 Bauj. 98 1 year ago as accident-free (as in 2007 with 135,000 km from 1st hand bought) with 160 000 km and was addressed by the buyer directly by lawyer that the vehicle had an accident damage. A simple report was attached The damage was determined because of an engine defect. I drove the vehicle to the TÜV myself 1 week before and no defects were fixed. Since there was no mess, I have a more concrete report e It was found that there were several accidents that were probably related to datam 2002/2003. Jezt should still be named the previous owner as a witness, who of course will not admit the accident. he already does not appear 2 times. How to deal with it now.Kamm one by a paint analysis exactly find that the Unall 2002 was and in the time of my possession (2007-2009 ) could not have been at all. I had no accident but the whole theater makes me still curate. If I still have a car and buy case-free and had no accident, I sell it cook again accident-free. I used an ADAC purchase contract. Would be glad if I got information. Greetings Dagmar

HI ALL, HI BOESER SIETER (if you still exist here) There is a problem again with which I am sure many can help, and hopefully also want to. My brother bought a 200 compressor W170 MOPF last week in Austria (he is richer and lives there too). At the sale was the ABS lamp on, but the seller could convince my brother that it is nothing bad, and so he bought. Against my foreign advice, because I would never buy a car where I could buy a car. When the disease has once penetrated into these new cars, everything can happen. Yesterday the first drive from Upper Austria to Bavaria to work, at Deggendorf the engine control light goes on. With Mercedes everything is read out, the valve to the camshaft control is leaking, the oil pushes into the motor cable tree which also needs to be changed, the steering gear is not affected yet. The error message came from the lam bdasonde, he sounds too fat. I would now have the following questions: Could the seller temporarily “still” the engine control light so that it doesn’t kill the sale? That would then be a messy touch, one could legally do something for sure. At least achieve a return. Is the damage to the car common or frequent with the model? Is this a rather harmless repair that keeps itself in price limits, so car keep and repair, and good is it! Do you know about the case? Many thanks for the numerous inscriptions in advance.

Hello everyone, I’m new here, I have zero marking of cars and no more of the car purchase. For the purchase I will also take the corresponding people with me. But my question: I like the model of 2004 with the “Nase” better than the “old”. But I can’t afford the one of 2004 yet, because it lacks so 500€ at the moment. The one of 2003 is already feasible. Now I ask myself, should I rather wait and save and buy the 2004er directly, then in 2-3 years? Or the 2 003 and so sell in 5 years or so and buy the other one? How big are the financial losses if I go step 2 or does not do anything at all? I hope my question is not too blatant, I really don’t know myself and my environment makes me crazy anyway, because I want to finally fulfill my dream. lg Isabella

Hello, now that I did a test drive with the SLK 200, I had to find out that the predictions have come true. I was a bit disappointed by the engine, somehow it runs a bit tough. I had an automatic, even in sports mode it was not really good. So I decided to buy a 280 from 2008, which is about 30,000 offered by the Mercedes dealer. Can anyone say how much discount there is still in there? I really only want 28. 000 spend, but the best offers are between 30 – 32,000,-. Is there a chance to get about 2 – 3,000 off cash? Or is that hopeless with Mercedes? Would be grateful for a tip and many thanks in advance.

Hello, I’m looking for a SLK. So far I wanted a SLK 200 (for reasons of reason), but I have now seen that the consumption of the SLK 28o or 300 with 7-Gtronic in the SLK prospect is only about 1 liter/100 km above the SLK 200 with automatic. Is this also the case in practice? The extra consumption is a little less for a 3 l engine compared to the 1.8 l. If that’s true, what Daimler says in the brochure, that would mean that a SLK 300 with 7G-tro nik no longer consumes fuel like my current C 200 K from 2005 with a 5-speed machine. If anyone still knows about the differences in maintenance costs, I would be very grateful. I know, by the way, that this topic was already on, but it was apparently in 2007. I assume that there are some more recent findings in the meantime. Thank you in advance.

For the first time hello to all the forum members, I finally got a Slk 350 with AMG package. I bought it only at a BMW car dealership. The vehicle left a really good impression. Built 07/05, 82tkm on the clock, AMG optics; Large Navi etc. Inspection still makes the car dealership. But look at the pictures for yourself. I already made an appointment at KBR Motorsport with regard to a new exhaust system in the look of 55s. Can you tell me maybe where I have the Hec Kspoilerlippe from the ’55s?

Moin, I have the following topic: The light in the trunk doesn’t work on. Lamp is healthy. In addition, the light in the interior does not go out as if there is still a door. I think both phenomena are connected. Have today opened the rear flap lock and looked for a switch – in vain. I could not discover a button in the trunk. Therefore the question: Where does the impulse trunk come from open/closed? From a button or centrally from the PSE/ZV pump? I had the latter today e also expanded. Thank you in advance! Greeting, Rollo

Hello, at our SLK, Ertstzul. 1/2013, at the narrow painted strip over the windshield the clear varnish dissolves large area. There are no mechanical influences or similar visible. Once started the driving wind detachs the clear varnish further, so that the damaged place becomes ever larger. We were immediately at our MB dealer. There a standardized adhesion test was made and the place extensively examined. The adhesion test resulted in a very bad ha The MB dealer now wants to have almost 900,-€ from us for the repair. Of course, we do not pay for this and leave the place as it is now. Since it is very visible and conspicuous it clearly shows the great paint quality of this premium manufacturer. Oh yes: even in the exhaust tailpipes there is almost no black paint anymore and also on the front of my same older C-class there are larger paint solutions on the plastic parts. Knowing well of these problems MB does not give a paint guarantee on its new vehicles.

Hello together, when I put my SLK in the garage yesterday he did not start after 5min! The ignition does not work! If I turn the key nothing happens! The amatures glow! The control lamps of the amatures do not work! I suspect the immobilizer! Battery I have checked iO. Second key used! Backups checked iO. I am stunned! Need your help! Thank you
