Does anyone have any recommendations regarding replacement of the cats on my R129 2000 SL320. I appreciate genuine parts are probably best but the price is a little steep. I didn't know if anyone has fitted aftermarket ones which were still a good fit? :)
...well today saw me complete the following jobs at my local Indy;
#diff oil change
#new steering damper, old one was shot,floppy as wet string!
#new front roll bar bushes x 4; old ones were hard and well worn.
All parts were very reasonably priced at my local MB dealer...
Wheels go...
Hello
New to the forums, and this is my first post.
I have had a 1994/5 SL320 104 engine,with the 722.5 transmission. I have had her for around 10 months now, and now it just started to do this.
The can has ran fine for 10 months, but recently it started to misfire, which has been identified...
...whilst removing the ctec charger last night I noticed the black pipe that I assume takes water away from the roof? Anyway, the pipe rests on the drain hole
rather than fully inserting in the hole?
How should it sit? Thank you.
...Next job to fit a detachable tow bar!
Have identified a supplier but if any one out there has one to sell I am interested?
Having looked underneath God only knows where they fit one? Seems terribly tight...anyone got one fitted?
Thanks

Questions about Window operation:
If I press the down button on either window, the window goes all the way down automatically; if I press the up button, the window does not go all the way up - I have to keep my finger on it; Is this correct...

Hello everyone,
I have a 1998 V6 sl320, 120 000 miles and runs like a bird except yesterday, after 100 miles & lunch, started the car and it felt like it was running on just three cylinders.
Drove it 25 miles to a garage before switching it off again (just in case it wouldn't start again...)...

Had been looking for the last 3-4 mths, drove a few looked at a few more, then considered A124 cabriolets, just saw one of those in very poor shape today, dismissed it immediately.
Looking at the usual web sources, prices, specs and condition seemed to bear no relation to each other.

Fuel pump is not running when key on or cranking. checked voltage across pump when key on/cranking and zero volts, so assume its not getting any.
I'm not sure what relay is the right one and how...
