2009年2月25日 · Is there any such thing as a performance upgrade pkg/chip/module, etc. for the lowly sl500 ? (2003 sl500, non-sport, normal engine, etc.) Anybody out there have any experience with such? (power boost worth the effort, mpg, etc?) Thx. Cor

2009年2月10日 · I'm looking into purchasing a late model SL 500. Just wanted to get some input from some current owners as far as owner satisfaction, which years to get and what years to stay away from. Any advice would be appreciated. BTW, I'm looking at at a 2006 SL 500, 26k miles, for $40k. What do you guys think? Thank you in advance!

2005年6月27日 · While the new 7-speed auto provides more performance and slighly better fuel economy, i am not too sure about it's reliability. The old 5-speed is considered "bullet-proof", capable of handling nearly 800 ft-lbs. torque! The new …

2023年8月20日 · I have a 2003 SL 500 that I recently converted. I had been reading of problems with the ABC system as it ages, and I had a hose rupture that convinced me to convert.

2024年7月14日 · However, at 300 hp the SL 500 would probably be fine until the day I drove a 55 AMG, if that were to ever happen. So, I find myself here, searching for knowledge in one of those all things considered moments while only having enough knowledge to consider the enormous amount power the AMG has over the NA 5.0.

2024年3月27日 · Hi all, got a pretty good car in the slk320 built in 2000. However I’d like to upgrade to a bigger motor that doesn’t quite rattle so much. I was looking at the SL350 around 2004 to 2006. There are still a few low mileage ones around. Or do I go up to the 500. The reason for thinking the 350...

2010年1月11日 · jampie-sl said: I had exactly the same problem with my SL350 a few months ago. The problem is not the pump itself but a bad (leaking) piston-cilinder, part A2308001472, cost about 200 euros; but i also paid a lot of work, in total i paid 1.247 euros for the repair.
