So, that hurts! Before that, in a thread, someone applied for trailer couplings for SLK. That’s why I dealt with this idea. Of course, it’s none of the things you do with your own car. But I would never mount such a profane thing on my SLK and abuse it as a towing vehicle. It’s by no means my intention to kick someone on the slips here, but I find a SLK with trailer coupling. how do you see this? Greetings Chanel1910

I’m thinking about whether the GT is a sports car for me. So far I’m driving 911 as a fun car. With the GT, the vehicle width seems to me to be the critical issue, since the GT with its 1.95m width is almost 14cm wider than the 911(BR 991). I live in a city where I park in normal-wide parking garages. Also many roads in my surroundings are rather narrow due to parked driving points in the oncoming traffic. As a fun car, my sports car often becomes faster on smaller cars. What are the experiences of the GT owners here: Does it make sense for me to consider the car? Some hints in order to focus your answers: (1) Yes, my wife and I can drive. Also in tight space. (2) You don’t need to convince me of the engine/gear unit etc., because we are used as a vehicle. (3) There will definitely not be a GT R, as the one would be wider again (4) And YES, the GT would definitely be a great vehicle if . . .

Hello, someone from you already has experience with the AMG Performance Package? I’m now 3 J and 120,000 km with the SLK 350 and now would like to switch to the SLK 55. I have the standard sports suspension of DC. I can only advise anyone from it. Just hard and poorly tuned. Long motorway curves with bad underground drive the sweat on the forehead. He then simply loses the ground grip too quickly and is transferred. I am now a WE a SLK 55 The chassis was much better already. Think now, the AMG Performance Package with me. Is there another chassis installed there. Who has driven it before and how is the road position especially on motorways at speeds greater than 200Km/h? Thanks for reply LG Bernd

Hello @ ALL have become aware of motor-talk.de by google and find it great that here everyone is helped as far as it goes. Now I need your HELP… On 14.03.08 I added a 230k manual circuit Bj.11/1999 with 67000 km. Very well maintained.. In the evening much now the following..In idle mode, at traffic lights, the engine is extremely jerking, it does not run out, but jerks massively. On the following day I made this error and had to make the vehicle for repair on 18.03.08 to the On 20.03.08 I received the car again, according to the workshop manager of Mercedes: The vehicle is in a perfect condition, no error to determine…With this statement I could not give myself and personally presented the vehicle again on 22.03.08 at Mercedes, there it was now from someone else, the engine is jerking and sometimes sporadically takes no gas. Mistakes were confirmed to me, but the Nac Then I was at my lawyer after this back and forth, who had asked the dealer (also a big known dealer) to repair the vehicle until 02.04.08 and to hand it over again, otherwise I would make use of my right of withdrawal. So I had left the car again for repair on 26.03.08 and received today. Statement HEUTE von Mercedes: Improvement, the error is no longer there and was by our r page fixed (acc. to Mercedes )… So my dealer called me and told me the following that car was standing too long and had to be driven in properly, this would probably have been done by an employee from the dealer where I bought the car and the engine would now be flawless, well that he was also in the first 10 km, but now it is jerking again… Even in writing it was confirmed to me.. Could you please tell me where the jerking comes from and that he sometimes does not have any gas. Of course I should give the car back and collect the money, but I LOVE the 230k. In 2002 I had one that was running perfectly… EVERYTHING TO HELP I would like to thank you for your answers.

Hello guys, I had asked in another forum out of pure curiosity if you can change the brake pads on a SLK 55 itself. Unfortunately, besides teachings and the statement that you should have enough money as a 55 driver to be able to change the pads on Mercedes, no helpful answers came to the topic. So, to make this clear now: 1. No, I don’t want to change myself. 2. The pads on my vehicle are still ok. 3. I can m 4. Of course, I will let Mercedes do this when changing the coverings. I hope I haven’t forgotten anything. So I would be pleased about a guide to the exchange of the coverings, in particular about information regarding the consideration of various activities in connection with the exchange. Thank you already once for the numerous and constructive contributions. Greetings Andreas

Hello SLK fans I would like to buy my 200K Bj. 2003 a roof module and a light module. Do these modules even apply? Is there someone in the large room 73430 Aalen (around 70 km) who knows how to install and install the modules with my SLK against an expense contribution. I don’t want to try it myself, because I have always ended up in the workshop during various handicraft work. [email protected]

Hello, I want to get a SLK in the spring. Now I am actually someone who buys rather well-kept old cars (7-10 years old) with little mileage (< 100,000 km). You have to expect more repairs and do without one or the other technical innovation, but save a lot of money. I would tend to a R170, 230 compressor with manual transmission, year 2000 or younger and would like to spend around the EUR 10,000. In the well-known sales exchanges in the Nederland tz I find a lot of choice. A friend of mine drives a R171 and said that I have the extra costs back in only because of the lower consumption after three years (I plan with approx. 15,000 km per year). Is that so? The plant data are combined with the old 230 compressor at 9.8 L, with the new 200 compressor with 163 hp a good 1 litre less. But for that also 20 hp is missing. So one liter would not expect, as I have to lay for a R171 good EUR 6,000 more. Are there other things besides the more chic look (which is not so important to me, I want to drive the car and don't look at it) that are significantly better with the R171? Furthermore, I have doubts about buying a car from one of the first series at the R171 year 2005/6. It is no secret that many mistakes in the design and production are only noticeable with the customer and then are gradually improved by the manufacturers at later years of construction. tend to R170 to Facelift. Thank you for a few tips Greetings Thomas

Good evening together, My SLK is doing wonderful things. Usually it starts like one, but sometimes it dies while trying to start. That means I try to start it and it is like the battery is empty, only then nothing works,quasi, as the battery would not be connected anymore. There is no light anymore and no ZEntral-rigging. Mostly it only jumps again when the battery is stuck off. The error occurs mainly with warm motor. I recently installed an oil stop cable and had to replace the original plug on the wire harness. Connected are the cables with solder connectors. Does anyone else have any idea? Mercedes R170 230K automatic, Built 97 with 150k km

Hi guys, let’s do a little survey. Is there a couple of fun experiences with you every now and then, if you’re on the road with your SLK? Last time: I’m going to my main fuel station very quietly and relaxed (music out) because I wanted to go to the bench for a short time ( 10 m away ) suddenly someone like that comes to me again with new petrol. (i.e. external staff) Even when he was on his way to me, he was extremely aggressive and said, “Let’s go here sofor I thought, well, what’s going on here? Do I disturb you just now I ask him and still said, they are busy back there. I’m back in 2 minutes. He says to me, yes exactly. and then only come back in 2 hours. That’s got me excited, I meant to him, do you want to say now that I needed to lie to you? Then came the top hammer!!! Just out of the nothing, he says to me —> Always the same with EUCH, you think you drive a big wa Then I couldn’t do it anymore and I folded it together properly, because it’s just as social sayings. You can’t even move wrong or sit wrong, let alone making the music too loud. —-> You’re immediately stamped and that’s really puke. Drive a normal SLK 230 year 2000er —> So not exactly the worst or most expensive SLK hehe not even modified model. Isn’t it just a Ferrari experience? e almost every day a new story ́s How does it look at you? Hope that not only do I get it off again and again
