I would like to introduce myself briefly, my name is Rudi, until 48 years old, married, 2 children. Since yesterday I am proud owner of an SL 320 Built 94, 2nd hand, 130Tkm. With this car type I have loved for a long time, which the purchase but became reality so quickly, was already by chance (unhoped often comes). In short, my work colleague bought a SL 350 (bj. 2002) and sold me his SL for 10,500 €. The car was very well cared for by his predecessor and him (no rain, snow). ee, etc). I was able to get some good advice from this forum and would like to contribute my experiences here in the future. The problem with the windscreen wiper, which runs only at level 3, I was able to fix very quickly with the hints from the forum, thank you!!!! Next is the purchase of a new exhaust system (stainless steel, company Ernst, middle and rear silencer) and the installation of a gas system. I will report on both projects. So until then … Greeting: Rudi

Hello, this morning after starting and opening the roof, the battery light and the lamp for ASR and ABS suddenly lit up, the engine’s gas consumption was delayed. The engine “saws” in idle mode. Immediate workshop visit; after the diagnosis of the Daimler customer service, the controller of the alternator was broken and an output voltage of 18 volts was measured. It could also be that a control unit was broken; however, this can only be determined if the light mschin e. Alternator exchange: 900 Euro, control unit only material costs of 2500 Euro. I was quite impressed by that – I bought the car two years ago and since then I drove about 8000 km. In itself I have confidence in my workshop, but here I would like to ask once in the round, if this sounds plausible for you ? Also, about the costs? Who has had such a thing on his car before? Gruss Wolfram 1

how long does such a sl 280 run when it is well preserved and is kept??? scrape at the 200tkm mark. is there certain things that are broken by default from a higher running power so 200tkm and upwards? do I have to reckon with something bigger?? or am I still in the “green area”? did the friend hear that so from 250tkm very much the light engine goes on and the transmission(5speed automatic in my case,are nevertheless installed from MJ 96,or??) slowly pushes to its limits i ch hope you can write me as much information as possible lg matias

Hello, at my SL BJ 1997 the climate stopped during the ride. So air conditioning was cool and cooled. At some point I thought “but damn warm here” and looked at the system. There was the lamp in the EC switch on. I pressed, and nothing happened. Even after longer waiting time or days later always the same effect. EC lamp on and climate does not cool. Does anyone have a advice or tip or should I drive directly to the friendly MB? gamby

Last Saturday all the larger Mercedes dealers saw the new SL convertible. What a shock! The front is so strange that I canceled my “fast order”. Seller said, you get used to it. But 2010/2011 should come the real successor. After Facelift 2006, now Facelift II. Who is waiting or who is convinced of the new Facelift. I am right over to the Porsche dealer and will order 911, you can never do something wrong. ns if one of the SL designers in Bremen or Stuttgart reads with us here. 2 emergency seats like the 911 and many other sports cars or old SLs would do the new SL good in 2-3 years, because the rear shelf is now nothing half and nothing whole. The children want in there, but are not allowed and do not understand …

Hello everyone! I’m new here and I hope for your help, I’ve already read a lot here and find your knowledge really great. So my problem is this, I want to buy a new vehicle a SL350 or SL500 so from year 2002. What would you recommend to me I know that the 350 he has no ABC chassis as standard and consumes about 3 liters less. if I add a 500 I’m afraid that the ABC suspension could cause problems and the repair of this system is not particularly cheap. Since I can only drive in the city the consumption is important to me, sometimes quite honestly what consume your SL`s in the city, highway is not important. thank you very much in advance!!!

hello together, I want to ask you, because I want to get a 320 sl soon, bj 2001, now to all of you, how are your experiences so with this model best thanks in advance for the good purchase advice–and please no stupid sayings of people who have no idea of!!!!!!!!! so all along good drive bye tommi

Hello, I’m about to change my car, it’s definitely supposed to be a SL again. I’m still thinking about whether 350 or 500. My brother drives a SL 350 year 2004. I often had the opportunity to drive it and was very satisfied. This SL 350 still has almost 3.8 liters, at 245 hp and a very nice balanced ride, in conjunction with the automatic, absolutely hectic-free. The new machine has only 3.5 liters, at over 300 hp. Does anyone have experience with it? with a car not so much on the engine power, rather subjective for me, but on the feeling when driving itself. In 2010 comes anyway 130 as a top speed, EU specification, because I would feel so stupid to drive with 500 hp, 130 km/h next to a golf. I often drive in my weekend home to Belgium, gladly open when the weather is playing along. There once overtaken me a F 50, with 135 km/h, that was the ridicule itself. But again to the point, I do not want a nervous motor dri I’ve seen this before in the Porsche, when I’ve once gone abroad, and I’ve never used the acceleration to my present 500th, so I’m fond of a 350 model. I drive about 50 000 km a year and I want to do it calmly and relaxed. Greeting, Manne07
