My SLK 230 seems like it does not respond immediately when I want to excelerate is this normal. Or is it because its an automatic
#182 of 226 Slow response by greasykid1 Mar 19, 2006 (9:52 am)
Have SLK350 with automatic. Instant response with 7 speed auto. Sounds like a computor problem.
#183 of 226 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 a real delight at 18Km by slk Mar 23, 2006 (12:10 pm)
I now have 18,000 kilometers on my 2005 SLK350 and it is turning out to be everything it promised and remains problem-free despite the usual spirited driving. It's fully loaded, incl. the 7-spd auto. The only thing I had to do was lubricate the hardtop rubber at the points where it folds. Did this once, was very easy to do, and it got rid of the little squeaks that had developed in the dry weather. Have driven it all winter in Northern Ontario, Canada, on a set of proper winter tires, and the automatic climate-control system is fully up to the demands of even the coldest weather up here. The SLK350 is a perfect all-season sports car, and has a great engine. I have never had to top up the oil, and the upcoming "B" service in the next couple of months will be the first scheduled service. We're a bit isolated up here, and my service point is over 700 kilometers away - makes for a great drive on a single tank of gas.

Replying to: cmcclure (Mar 06, 2006 5:23 pm) I had this same problem for a while and I finally got it. Simple answer is when you put the socket back in don't completely turn all the way to the right. I went through two sets of new taillight assemblies before I realized there is a flaw in how they are made where the metal plate the socket touches wears away. If you take it apart you will probably see the same thing, there will be a black dot where the metal prong on the socket touches the plate. This did the trick for me and has been working since. Hope that helps

Replying to: cathy6 (Oct 23, 2005 7:52 am) I have a 2005 SLK 350 .The same thing happened twice to me and it really scared me. I was once accelerating on to the freeway with a huge truck coming up behind me and my car went into neutral. Another time it happened on a side road .I pulled off quickly and restarted the car .I took it to the dealership and they replaced the transmission system.But one day after I got the car back it has happened again and they don't know what's wrong.Has this happened to someone else?Its really dangerous and I'm scared to drive my car now even though I love it so much!

Replying to: gregisgod13 (Apr 10, 2006 5:38 am) Maybe the older style (pre-2005) seemed a little tame. But the new SLK is a looker.
