The car might be okay but I want those wheels so much. Even if they don't fit mine.:( MERCEDES 500 SL,MOT OCTOBER,75000 MILES | eBay

Hi all. First post on here. I've owned a K Reg r129 500sl since March. Superb machine. Two days ago the car started making some ticking/clicking sounds when it starts to move. Thought it was bearings so I took it to AS down the road to see if they could check (I refuse to deal with Drayton...

New territory for me, having owned three diesel Mercedes before, but never a petrol and certainly never a convertible, let alone a V8. The car in question is a 1996 on 139k miles, very straight body with just one small patch of rust at the front of the of wheel arch. It has climate, memory...

I haven't had my R107 SL for long and am getting to know the car gradually. I am puzzled by a ticking noise which sound like a loud indicator relay. It emanates from beneath the glove box. It is NOT the indicators. It seems to come on randomly whilst driving or stationary and sometimes persists...

I'm in need of advice. I have a 93 500sl and te n/a headlight adjustment fails as it seems there's a clip on the bottom that's suppose to lock the light in place but it's broken and headlight swings upwards. Does anyone know where to get a replacement clip as apparently they break often and a...

Reading many of the serious Engine misfire problems on the Forum, makes mine sound a little pathetic, but worth bringing up. Car is R129 500SL, year 2000, 113 eng. It has a very slight rough idle. Not sure if these engines should be silky smooth... Should I be able to put a Martini on the...

Hi everyone. So I replaced distributor caps and rotors not long ago (few months). I opened them up the other day to see how they were going and I noticed that on the left hand distributor cap (and on the rotor point) there was quite a bit of green flaky oxidisation that had built up, not so...

Hi again. Another drama. Last night I opened the top interior compartment on the centre console of my 500SL (called sunglasses compartment I think) and now it won't shut, seems the latch where the button is won't grab. Has anyone had this problem before, and is it easy to fix? Or should...

I possibly might be interested in a Merc 190 Cosworth or 500SL in 4 weeks or so. (manual if its a 190) 4 weeks because I need to move a car before taking another (no space currently) so cannot buy before but putting feelers out now. Possibly because I am not convinced I should be buying an...

Nothing special about this but I nearly bought it then the seller decided that he wanted to keep it, quite annoyed at first but happier with the one i ended up with. It has increased by 1K since I looked at it but it now has amg wheels... When I looked at it there was some bubling on the...
