Removing Supercharger from a 2003 "Facelift" SLK 230
I have a 2003 SLKK 230 that has a total of 41,000mi and the supercharger is very noisy at idle (can't really be heard over other noises at speed), so I want to pull it, replace all of the bearings, and replace the composite coupler.
Pelican publishes the procedure for the EARLIER Eaton M62 S/C that has the clutch pulley, but not the later M45 S/C that is direct-drive.
I understand the procedure is different, but I cannot find the procedure online (yet), even by searching this forum.
Does anyone have a link, or can describe the procedure for me?
And 2), how many ounces of S/C oil does the M45 take after re-assembly?
Thanks,
Bob
