  • Panne – car did not pull, drove high touring, white smoke, no cooling liquid, fuel consumption

    Moin, I have a question: I bought myself a nice 450 SL, Bj 1974. On the drive from the seller, after a short stop in a parking lot, the car did not move anymore, turned around on high tours, I immediately drove off from the highway to a parking lot. At the last meters a lot of white smoke came out of the engine room. I turned off the engine. Later I found that there was no cool liquid. ADAC. The car is now in the workshop. Can someone tell me what that could be. The seller says that it did not happen with him. Oh yes, I just drove about 40 km. Consumption according to indicator 1/4 tank, about 15 liters… isn’t that too much? Thank you for a reply

  • R129 – Purchase advice

    Hello SL friends, I would like to buy a R129 and are not quite sure what is most useful here. We are looking for a SL pure for the summer (3000-5000KM/year), which remains stable in terms of value. But I’m not sure if we should favor a model of the first series (e.g. a 1994er) with a few kilomters (e.g. 60,000) or a model of the last series MOPF 2 with just under 100,000 KM. We don’t care about the engine – best of all, which lasts long and is very good quality. Since we can only oprically judge and are no mechanics, it is quite difficult to get a really good car. Could I buy auc from private and if so, who can then check the quality? Would so invest up to 20,000,-€. It would be nice if I could get some advice from you. Merci and many greetings Torsten

  • R 129 does not start after winter break

    Moin Moin municipality I have a R 129 500 built in 2002. If I want to start my car after the WInterpause I regularly get a crisis. The battery is connected to a maintenance charger and fully charged. I can unlock the vehicle ( Funk ZV ) everything is unlocked. I can open the cover completely, with engine! It lights up all the control lights as it should be. No error message about the top switch, airbag light goes off, so everything is good! Only if I want to start the train, so turn the ignition key, nothing happens, so nothing starts doesn’t turn! Only after several times the battery can I start the vehicle again! The phenomenon doesn’t occur, by the way, if my vehicle is 2 or 3 weeks, because I don’t come to drive. So only after the 6 months winter break. Do you have a tip that could help me? Greet Romanus

  • Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC – First start after 14 years

    Good day people, My father left me his 280 SLC! Year 76, color: green, automatic, 2nd hand & 185hp……the nice piece has been in family possession since the end of the 80s But then in the winter period the hoses or the cooler burst when freezing the liquid (I don’t know now exactly which of both) which made it impossible to drive because he lost water all the time. My father always postponed the repair until later but it never came to this…so the car stood unmoved for 14 years in a (whole) garage That also left traces (in some places extreme rust spots) So now my question: I tried to restore the car with my father. But first I have to get the engine to run. What do I have to do?? How does it look with a previous oil change? Must the tank be emptied first & new fuel filled? Please for help (because nothing is wrong & risking a motor damage) Here are some pictures:

  • Use Carly as the first measure for diagnosis?

    Hi guys, I’m thinking about buying the Carly Adapter to be able to perform 1. Diagnosis on the car. Does any of you have the part in use? How far can you check things on the car with it? I’m aware that the part does not replace StarDiagnosis. I would like to use it as the first measure for diagnosis. Before actually repairing should be done, I would have someone check again with a StarDiagnosis or have the Carly result verified. for the following cars: W202 BJ 1998 W204 BJ 2007 W221 BJ 2008 W205 BJ 2014 Best regards, Toni

  • G350BT Electrical

    Hello, is there a way to get to a schematic with terminal diagram etc. for my `12er 463.346? Specifically, I am interested in everything about the speed control, speed detection, mantle tube module. Where can I pick up which signal and feed in if necessary etc. Be happy about every hint!

  • Vibration G350 BT, does anyone know the problem?

    Dear G-Friends, I need your help! I drive a G350 BT, built 10/2013 and 11/2013. So it is the Mopf model (spring 2012), which was revised again for the new model year 2014 due to some problems during the factory holidays in the summer of 2013 (e.g. larger oil tank and reduced maintenance intervals to 15 Tkm). Already after about three months the G showed vibrations and hums in certain speed ranges. This occurs especially with low partial load and in the Sc The steering wheel and pedals then vibrate, the whole car as well, as well as a hum from time to time, on the driver’s seat it is much better to feel than on the passenger seat. In the meantime, the G was three times at the dealer for revision, incl. twice support of a factory employee. It was here Changed to the distribution gearbox, the drivetrain relaxed, as well as the bearings of engine, transmission and exhaust line renewed. Result: only slightly improved, but quickly restored old condition with the above mentioned vibrations. In the meantime I got it back, unfortunately without solving the problem. I can’t understand the hint from MB that this is normal for a real off-road car with ladder frame and distributor drive. Is not my first ‘real’ G After a joint test drive and the statement that the problem is easy to feel and reproducible, the service employee from the factory probably caught another demonstrator for comparison, who should show similar symptoms. Therefore, this would be the current standard of production. I will not let that stand (the legal position on my part regarding change etc. I know udn will act accordingly, if there is no solution), me But first of all it is about the question to you whether one of you had similar problems and whether and above all how and by which work these could be solved, so that I am better equipped in the following negotiations with MB. Basically I do not want to give the G at all, because I like to drive it very much, but without a solution to the problem I will have to bring about a solution. In advance many thanks for your help, greeting to the congregation of Markus

  • Which SAM does not fall asleep, sucks battery empty in a few hours

    Good morning, I could use some tips, yesterday I found out for the second time that the car has only 12.3 V of rest voltage, 30 min. after turning off. F25 for the siren (1 year old) I pulled 3 weeks ago, now again problems, but more. Battery jammed overnight and fully charged, clamped, everything learned. Sleeps and stops 12.94 V of rest tension. Distinctive alarm system, only warning indicator, starts when disconnecting and jamming the ground cable. enso. When driving off, set up roll bar as a red warning, placed warning away, only the yellow symbol in the tacho lights up, triangle windows do not open up, lowered as at the door. Do not react, the front work including comfort closure and opening. When learning the triangle windows worked. Comand goes on, but no sound, CD changer: No CD changer available. ZV, seat heating, disc heating, massage, air conditioning, seats, light everything works. SAM Fa hrer, as well as passenger side dry, trunk dry. Will now read out with Icarsoft MB VII. Running functions such as sound system, rollbar, window at the back over one and the same SAM? I am grateful for every tip so that I can exclude it and order it at MB. Does a SAM actually have to be learned? In the door is also a SAM or is that in the engine room driver side? Greetings from Essen Ben

  • R230 which to buy?

    Meal People My wife finds the R230 very pretty, so I would like to give her one. Just like me, she likes the two years after the first model maintenance in early 2006. The most reasonable way to do this seems to be a SL350 with steel suspension, which leaves any hydraulic angs outside. Contrary to that, I sometimes drive with it and I might find the car too lame and maybe drive it like a ride. In addition, you have to find one that is no longer affected by the steering chains / steering gear problem. I know that it is difficult due to the many technology. I don’t drive that fast either. At most 220. But I want to reach this easily. How striking is the difference between M272 and M273 in the car objectively and subjectively? And how does the small one drive in fast motorway curves? At the moment I don’t like it. ls similar vehicle among other things a CL500 with 306hp, which I feel powerfully hard at the border to the property, but just still acceptable. The chassis is great at this because I once fully charged for 11,000€ with dampers, joints, sockets, ball heads, all original parts. Thanks for Enlightenment Nice weekend Eric

  • SL 500: Scattered vacuum pump even though ZV works (except for rear flap pull)??

    Hello, would like to start a new thread again, following on from the existing one: https://www.motor-talk.de/…/…est-not-complete-t6901261.html?… Could be interesting and helpful for some others with similar problems, regarding diagnostics of the friendly. Was now with the friendly one today, among other things, the problem that the tailgate of my SL500 R230 does not pull itself completely (up to about 1 cm). He said that it was no problem, is probably somewhere leaking in the Vak uumsystem. After some time he called me and said directly that the vacuum pump was broken, replacement necessary for 1000€ net. Had I absolutely not expected, for the following reasons: – All other mechanisms controlled by the vacuum pump (ZV locking and locking of all lockers inside) work perfectly. – The well-known “trick”, battery to/from and/or fuse out/pure works, then the tailgate closes completely, but only for 1-2 times) – One Hissing/air noise can be heard when opening/closing the tailgate in the tailgate lock. Therefore, hold a broken vacuum pump for excluded, instead rather a leak somewhere in the pipes or even directly in the lock. I also told the friendly one, whereupon he became somewhat unfriendly. How do you see this?
