Hi
I need to replace the front discs on my 1998 SL320 but looking on Euro Car Parts website there are 2 sizes 300mm and 334mm diameter. Is there a way to find out which size I need without taking off the wheels and measuring the existing discs?
Any thoughts on doing this job would also be...
Can anyone help, my battery ran flat and may have done so because the alarm had gone off, I disconnected the battery and charged it up. When returning it to the car the alarm keeps going off, I can open the doors and lock it with the key fob remote and start the car but the siren keeps going. I...
Hi,
a bad hair day today! My MB SL320 back window has snapped in half, unusual. Does anybody know where I can get in mended in the Cheltenham / Oxford area i.e. Cotswolds. Not a good day but at least the car feels more airy today.
Thanks.

I have just found out an enthusiast friend is selling his SL320. It's a late model with two piece AMG wheels and AMG suspension in black/mushroom with Panoramic roof. PM me if you want me to put you in touch with him.
The guy who remapped my previous cars said that he couldn't do it.
Are there any specialists who can map the car? Preferably in London or the Midlands. The car is a 1999 facelift model. I know that remaps won't give huge power gains on NA engines, but I do it for the improved drivability...
Thanks to all who have posted on my threads and countless others about these cars... I collected my new model today from up north. It's a 1999 model, it's lovely, it goes super-fine, and it will be a beauty once I've done a few jobs to it.
I actually agreed the sale three weeks ago but left it...
Hello all!
I'm the proud new owner of an 1999 R129 SL320.
I've owned her for a couple of weeks and have done some light restoration and a major service. Shes got the AMG body kit and 2 piece wheels, sitting much lower than she did from factory! Photos to follow once the weather is better...
Any good tips to clean the (cream/biscuit) cloth covering the speakers on my 96 (facelift) SL - new toy/daily driver.
Looks like I have shoe marks and watermarks to get rid of.
Slowly getting her the way I want.
Thanks
Hello,
I Wonder if anyone can help.
I have a 1998 sl320 with suspension warning lights coming on and off in a bizarre fashion.
The car was on blocks for one month early this year, while the wheels were away being refurbished
Once the wheels were back on, the ADS light would come on...
Hi Folks
Just bought a 1998 SL320 and on the whole its great a few issues around vacuum driven locking etc are present but are acceptable - however on acceleration (foot from mid to quite hard down) the power just goes, almost as if a engine stopped and then a big jolt as power kicks in again...
Has anyone had the same problem. When my sl320 has been stood in garage for a couple of days when I start the car fuel leaks from the fuel pump area under the car. After running for a while the fuel leak stops.
Any suggestions would be welcome as to the possible reason for this.
Year 2000 SL320. Engine turns over after turning key and continues to turn over for 10 secs or so - engine does not fire. Tried this for 20 mins or so, in P and N. Locked the car, opened the car, shut the soft top, foot on brake and everything else I could think of. Got a lift to my appointment...
Hi all,
Went to a family gathering this weekend, and saw this which belongs to a family member.
Went for a drive and was very surprised the car still retains some degree of quality in its ride - will not hesitate in lowering my w124 after sitting in this.
Owned in family from new, I'm second registered keeper. Service history with MB Glasgow and good independents. Sir Stirling Moss signed the service book at a race meeting, I may include original sales brochure for R129 and also the Mille Miglia model brochure. Covered 115,000 miles without...
