#702 of 766 2003 sl500 A maintenanace required indicator by golffool Sep 06, 2006 (9:22 am)
How do you reset the indictor if you change your own oil or have it serviced by other than MBZ?

I am the proud owner of a 93 500SL and its desireability, dependability and phenomenal performance, gives me the ultimate driving experience every time out. I really appreciate this car. My only small complaint is a slight fluttering or flapping noise from the dash on the passenger side. Can anyone tell me what this is?

Replying to: thedonclk (Jul 22, 2006 1:44 pm) 24 months 10K 76% or 12K 75% 36 months 10K 64% or 12K 63%   Money factors for lease through MBF are:   24 months 0.00415 36 months 0.00390   I have just returned my CLK and got a SL550. One new thing I have learned is the GAS GUZZLER TAX ($1700), and is not part of the MSRP where can be rolled in to the lease but is not counted as the MSRP of the vehicle. So calculate your payments accordingly.   I got my deal at $795 A.Fee, No Doc Fee, and $1100 over invoice. Make sure you verify all the numbers yourself (there is an Excel spreadsheet in these forums) as dealers seems to make a lot of mistakes to their favors. After going through a lot of Mass and then NH dealers, I have found one dealer in NH that I felt comfortable working with. If you are in MA, I would not go to Chambers.   Regards, Gent

Replying to: marsha7 (Jul 13, 2006 5:46 pm) My experience is with a 1999 SL500 with 60,000 miles which is my wife's daily ride the past 6+ years. It has the 7 year Starmark warranty (about to expire) which may not be available for the SL you are looking for. Some problems I recall are: 1) Driver's side "door hinge stop" creaked and cracked upon opening the door....not covered by Starmark 2) No seal leaks from top but noisy inside the car....never fixed 3) rear drive train replaced recently due to noise 4) rough noisy ride with all four sets of tires (Michelin, Dunlap & Goodyear) 5) lousy trade-in value ($24M) recently offered by dealer for mint garaged car which means you will probably find or have found an acceptable car at a fraction of original MSRP.
#707 of 766 1992 Limited Edition 500SL? by roger341 Oct 25, 2006 (7:22 am)
I'm hoping someone will know where I could get info on the subject vehicle (or even if it exists!).   Can't find anything on the net. I'll see the car this weekend to be sure it fits the description. I'm going to sell it for someone.   Thanks

Replying to: 97sl500 (Aug 12, 2005 6:33 pm) Man, haven't been on this site for a while. Yeah, the problem went away after changing oil 10w40, plugs and adding lucas gas treatment to clean up some of the carbon build up. That was over a year ago and hasn't knocked since. I use lucas periodically

Replying to: dispencer1 (Jun 25, 2006 6:45 am) Do you know how to obtain the original sticker price for a past model? thanks
