I have a 1993 R129 300sl, it starts and runs perfectly for 4 weeks then all of a sudden is very dificult to start ,when it does it runs roughly for 5 kilometers until I switch it off.
I start it again and it goes fine for several weeks then the same problem .
Also I have had the electric...
i started my 300SL after two weeks today. It started fine the first time, I then turned it off, but 5 minutes later it would not start again - after a few tries, smoke started coming from underneath the hood, not sure where it originated from. After an hour I tried starting it again, and after...
I've been told that the exhaust on my R107 is leaking and needs to be replaced. The initial quote I've received is for the original (non-catalytic converter) MB replacement exhaust and the price including fitting is in excess of 1,000 pounds. :confused:
Do any forum members have any advice...
:confused:Now I know winter is upon us and mpg suffers but what should I be getting out of a 300SL M103 engine. The car is driven sensibly but mainly short journeys.

Hi Guys,
This topic has probably been done to death but my SL suffers with poor cold start, and not brilliant warm start either TBH. When starting from cold, i can't touch the accelerator, just crank it for a while and it'll start with a really lumpy idle for a few minutes until warmed up. When...
I am looking for a 300sl soft top module/ecu with part number 1298200097 - from what I have researched any soft top ecu will do from a R129 as long as it has 3 connectors - the newer 2 connector ECU's from about 95 onwards will not work.
thanks,
Thought i'd drop in and say hello:thumb:
