sl55

Hi everyone I've had my SL for a few weeks now and I bloody love it. I just can't wait to get the charger pulley and a map done. Will have to pop to the next local meet round Kent way. Ben.

SL55 AMG, 2002, 50k miles. ABC pump no leaks, no noises. Fluid still clear and green. Car 'sags' unevenly all round but predominantly down on the offside overnight. No captions on start up and drives well. Can I correctly assume that there are valve block sticking - issues? If so which one and...

Anyone got one of these fitted & is it really worth it?? If so, where's the best place on line to buy one??

I'm in the New Forest in Hampshire and would like to know if anyone can recommend somewhere with a good reputation so that I can take my SL55 for a re-map. I'm quite close to one outlet with a good reputation that is worth a visit just to see the exotica lined up outside, but they charge at...

I'm after a set(2) of original (not LED) light units that illuminate the rear numberplate for the SL55. R230 body version, please? Anyone? Can't find them anywhere on line other than the upgraded LED's which make the numberplate look too bright. Thanks in advance Z

Passenger side - complete please? Old unit has yellowed over time and even a restoring company failed to remove the opaque sheen fully:fail

Arrived today: 2002, 50,000 miler in Designo Chromaflair with mystic blue nappa leather interior. SL63 split rims. Hope this love affair lasts longer than my last one! Piccies to follow.

So, one of my rear struts is now weeping fluid & so eventually will have to be replaced :fail My question; do these have to be replaced in pairs as we normally do with normal shock absorbers, or is it safe to just replace the one unit??

Bought an SL 55 and picking it up on Saturday. It's a 2002 model. Is the sat nav CD driven and if so - where can I get the latest update from? thanks in advance z

Very rare SL55 F1 Pace car spec front bumper, fitted as standard to cars with P30 Performance Package and to the SL65. Bumper is in good condition, not cracked or damaged with grills. £400 New fogs can be supplied for £100.

Newcomer to this car. Just sold my Maserati Granturismo and looking for advice on this latest car I'm looking at. I understand the following is common knowledge: Roof seals dodgy causing leaking into boot around electric motor. ABC pipework corroding and leaking. gearbox oil must be replaced...

The selector(with the start/stop button) is becoming difficult to get out of Park. Once out, everything is smooth. What's going to fail & will have to be replaced?? Where can I buy it on line & can I personally replace the mechanism or will it have to go to a specialist on STAR for...

AMG brake calipers, discs and pads from a SL55. I bought these from a forum member - cb1965 - earlier this year to replace my disks and calipers on my SL55, I had worn disks and wanted to paint my calipers and these seemed an ideal way of sorting both out. But these are different to my original...

Hi there. First post on the forum. I have an 03/04 SL55 AMG F1. I had it in Holland recently and had to change out the crank oposition sensor dure to starting prolems. Those starting problems were resolved but simultaneous with that fix some electroci issues arose but could be coincidental...

Hi, can anyone tell me what my 2003 SL55 Hi beam Halogen bulb is as I left my manual at home & would like to order LED replacements??

Well, I've been lurking for months, and recently (2 months ago) purchased a 2003 SL55 AMG V8 Kompressor, in Topas Blue. This is actually only my second car—my first was a mkiv Supra! Reason being that I was quoted about £3k to insure a metro when I was 18, and then decided not to get a car...

This may seem silly but where do you buy a decent set online? I'd like to buy a new set for my SL55 as they've definitely passed their prime but they also make a lot of noise, OE are the aero type blades. Any suggestions?

mornibg everyone, hope this is in the right section of the forum, but came across this sl55 on auto trader yesterday and from the pictures it looks very reasonably priced. the dealer sent over the service history which could explain the lower price than usual, has had full dealer service up...
