Did you ever get it sorted out? I have just bought a 97 SL500 with the same problem. The knock goes away when the engine has warmed up. And sometimes it dosn't knock at all.

Not sure how to post a new message, so here goes.
1990 sl300, 122k miles. Been really great. All of a sudden, second gear acting funny. Have to rev up the engine to engage 2nd on downshifts. Kind of feels like it may be slipping on upshifts. 2nd gear only.
Anyone have an answer?
One guy told me that each gear is independently adjustable. ???
thanks

I would say that in simple terms that the tranny is starting to go a 15 year old car. That explanation doesn't make any sense and/or is bogus.

I am trying to figure out how to register my 79-450SL as a collectible. I also want to know if there are special things to consider when registering a classic car.
Thanks, Steven//sjconnect

My sensors are reading 20-30 mph slower and its causing additional problems to my computer, the worst being the top will not go up or down unless I clear the memory by removing the pos battery cable. Anyone have this problem before and if so, please help.....

jtpsl500, you might also want to ask your question in the Got a Quick, Technical Question? discussion to maximize your feedback on this problem.
