    So I removed the pressure relief valve and sure enough, just like the others have posted. Did a search and found @mrdavidj post where he listed the o-ring sizes he used. Stopped by Harbor Freight today and they had a 255 piece kit of various sizes for $4.99, beats trying to find them...

    Looks like Adolf Wilhelm put his initials on the underside of my roof panel when he installed it. ;)

    Questions about the headliner fabric that you installed in this thread from 2019. 1999 SLK230 top AND headliner woes These headliners seem to have a shelf life of about 10 years. I replaced my original once, and now it's separating from the foam at the left rear corner just like in your photo...

    Due to getting older and not needing 3 cars, I'm in the process of selling my one owner 2001 SLK230 and my '71 Corvette that I've owned for 46 years. Are people still buying used R170's or are they just becoming parts cars. Mine has always been garaged since new and still looks great and fun to...

    Anyone else see the yellow '99 SLK230 5 speed with 25K miles sell on BAT for $20,500 yesterday? Very nice car with lots of bidding activity.

    How do you remove the control module cooling fan on a 2001 SLK 230? I see the clip at the output of the fan, but how to you get the assembly out of the module box? Thanks

    It's been so long since I've seen my roof switch light on that I can't remember when it lights up. Is it lit up when you start the car, turn the lights on, or only when you lower or raise the roof? Thanks

    I haven't lowered my roof in quite a while. I tried to on Sunday and nothing, no switch light, no noise, nothing. Yes, the retractable partition was pulled back and put into position. Fuse number 7 was blown, 5A, for Soft Top Control, Electronic Transmission Control, and Park/Reversing Lock...

    I'm getting ready to order 4 new ignition coils for my 2001 SLK230. The original coils are BERU, part number 000-150-17-80. Should I stick with BERU's, or consider a different brand. I have 1 defective coil that is arcing to the cover, but I want to replace all 4. Thanks

    Has anyone with charcoal interior removed their peeling paint and just left it stripped and not refinish? I purchased my 2001 new and it spends most of it's time sitting in the garage, but this peeling interior problem seems to have a life of its own. Thanks

    I drove my SLK a short distance to a CVS store, and when I got there I could hear something running when I turned the engine off. It was the ABS Pump. I drove it home and disconnected the ABS pump power at the fuse block to stop it from running. With the ABS Pump disconnected, I get .6...

    Last week for 5 days my ABS ESP/BAS lights would light up when I hit around 12 mph and stay on until I turned off the engine. I checked the wheel sensors they were clean. I went to my indy last Friday to pick up a part and was going to have him check for any stored codes. I stopped at a...
