#200 of 226 Convertible Hardtop Malfunction by alan5573 Jun 02, 2006 (5:02 pm)
Hardtop has been down for one week. It will not go up. No sound or movement takes place when trying to raise the top. A whirring sound from the hardtop motor can be heard if button is pushed in the retract direction. This is a 2001 SLK 320 and is out of warranty. I have owned it for two months. Seeking advice regarding cause of problem, solutions and cost based on your experience. Replies to this message: pamg (Jun 26, 2006 8:53 am) amixam (Jul 29, 2006 8:19 am)

My question is, Is the SLK dingy towable? If so what needs to be done to the vehicle? Thank you in advance for any information
#202 of 226 Dingy Tow by greasykid1 Jun 10, 2006 (8:28 am)
Not likely. If manual does not include info you can most likely forget it. Also front ground clearence is low so there is a strong chance of damage.   Had a bus for several years and towed a grand cherokee w/4 wheel drive. Ideal vehicle.   Other option is a tow dolly which has its own problems.

Replying to: metalicslk350 (May 17, 2006 11:27 pm) Hi metalicslk350,   I bought my slk350 in Feb. 2005, and had the same problem. After 4000 miles they replaced the engine. Then I had terrible transmission problems until they realized the software had been updated for the new engine, and reinstalled the software. I think this has been a common problem. Hope this helps.
#204 of 226 Clearing maintenance codes on SLK 320. by tserio1 Jun 18, 2006 (4:36 pm)
I own a 2001 Mercedes SLK 320. I have done my own maintenance and have the maintenance code "wrenches" showing on my odometer read out when I start the car. I need to know the sequence to clear out that code.

Replying to: alan5573 (Jun 02, 2006 5:02 pm) It could be electrical. Don't know how many miles you have on it, but my 2004 320 only has 22,000 miles and I had the same problem. It also had a faulty starter that made the problem worse. Mine is under warranty, so I don't know about costs. However, you should have it looked at right away before it affects anything else, if it is electrical.
