Welcome to the club! Please post a photo of your SL when you get a moment 👍
Thank you, here is a picture of the SL. It's been just below freezing where I am, but the sun came out, so the top went down. Roads were pretty dirty though.
Top down, might be cold but still sunny. Needed to get the road grime off.

Hi Greg and welcome to the club! Great looking wagon you have. Congratulations
Hi everyone. My name’s David, and I’m a bartender in Las Vegas, NV. After renting a 2018 C43 AMG on vacation in Orlando last summer I fell in love with that car and am now in the market for one, 2017-18s are in a payment range I’m comfortable with. I’ve learned a lot already and I’m happy to be here.
Hello. My name is Hector from Yonkers, NY. Just purchased a pretty clean 2000 CLK430 in silver with 106,000 miles last week and drove up 19 hours from Florida. The car drove great with no issue and mainly needs a good detail. If anyone is selling or knows where I could also source a front bumper lower grille that would be great.
I’ve been a scroller on this site for a while and always found so much useful info but thought I’d finally join. Had a few different Mercs so far, started with a W212 e350, then a C205 C300 and now I’ve got a c63s amg Coupe.
Also based in Dubai so if there are any other members from the UAE would be great to know.
Hi I just purchased this beauty and it was a long time coming. It took me about two years to find the one that I wanted, price I could afford, and geographical location. Very happy with it so far. Looking for advice on what sort of maintenance or things I should check on first. 2006 SL54 AMG

Hi everyone. Just bought a 2008 s550 and seems to be having problems everyday. No owners manual or fuse info. Any chance anyone knows which fuse to check for fob that only works when in ignition. Already replaced batteries and new fob. Also radio goes on when it feels like but no audio

I've had the pleasure of driving an X166 GL450 for about two years which served me very well. But since I've had acquired a W221 S550 which I'm ecstatic about! Driving it is a true luxury. It was a great find sitting at 49k miles and pristine service records - the suspension still feels new and the interior is almost flawless!
The vehicle is not fully equipped to my likings, but given the platform is very well built and designed, retrofitting is fairly easy! I hope to share my personal findings with others in the future! I'm not exactly sure what is standard, but my vehicle came with Dynamic Seats, Airmatic suspension, Adaptive headlights, Parktronic sensors and even an aftermarket remote starter that works with the original key!
Having an automotive background, I do all my repairs and maintenance myself, given there's no fabrication involved.
Prior to purchase of the W221 I found out the steering wheel height adjustment motor was inoperable - it was fixed easily by gaining access to the steering column and assisting the height adjustment motor with a wrench while operating it, which got it moving and works perfectly now.
Although I did end up purchasing a $70 second hand steering column from eBay (instead of just the motor itself @ $300!) as I was planning on using it as a donor, assisting the original motor got it working again.
I acquired a VXDIAG SE for the Mercedes platform to assist with diagnostics, which gave me access to plenty of useful information and I would highly recommend such tool for others tinkerers as well (unsure of forum rules permit directly sharing such tools.).
Since the purchase I've completed an oil change (Forgot the Blackstone lab test kit - Will share findings next oil change!) and a spark plug change, come to find out my whole Bank 1 has oil on the plug threads... In addition the filter housing appears to be seeping, hoping to document it well and share my work!
I have added a storage box under the front seats since they discontinued their implementation back in '09 - while it is a very quick install, I can add that maybe one of the reasons they were discontinued, was the fact that it is very easy to accidently kick it open. Regardless, I'm keeping them.
I did bite the bullet and replace my rear muffler sections with ones from a '09 S65!
It does sound amazing and will share some videos down the road once the install is finished. I was provided information that the exhaust will be a direct bolt on replacement, but the fact that the diffusers don't match was left out. I have a proper diffuser coming my way, as well as replacement tips to match my likings!
I am planning on adding some features to the vehicle, such as Blind spot assist, a fridge retrofit and a somewhat inconspicuous dash camera. I really love to keep things as original and sleek looking as possible and stay away from aftermarket options that stand out from the general design of the vehicle.
There are some options of the dashcams that appear to be molded around the OEM mirror cover, curious to see if anyone has had any experience with their install and quality.
I have gathered most of the information and part numbers for the Blind spot feature, but since the vehicle does not have Distronic option which is used to communicate the blind spot sensor data, I am still researching the retrofit and will share with the final outcomes.
Looking forward to gaining knowledge from the rest of the forum! Impromptu tow! Friend had no tow hook but the GL Handled it perfectly! Roughly ~2,500 lbs tow was very smooth! Solar windows with a 35 Tint makes the windows look mirror finish - absolutely love it! First picture I took of it S65 Muffler section first fit - Ignore the dirty tips!
