Im looking for a Service/Repair Manual like the Bentley Publishing books or Chilton (you get the point). Something to help us with out with doing out own servicing on our own cars. Does anyone know of a book, CD, of any source that can help us with this? Just thought I post on here to see if anyone on here knew of one.


Thanks

They don't really make any good paper manuals. But you can order the CD repair manual threw Mercedes.

Thanks for the info. I was figuring they wouldnt have any good ones but was really trying to push away from going to the dealer for it. I guess I have no choice. You wouldnt happen to know about how much they charge for it do you?

I use alldatatadiy.com. It is a subscription service, which I generally avoid, but I needed detailed electrical diagrams and they have them.

How did you find there information on there to be? Was it pretty accurate and does it get really into detail on things? I have been told by multiple people to use http://www.startekinfo.com/StarTek/ but than again that goes back to you have to subscribe to it which I really dont want to do. I believe MB has the service manual on CD for the SLK's but also looking for one for the SL's as well which I had no luck with as well.

I've found it to be generally quite good. The source material is from Mercedes. The electrical diagrams, which I use the most, have been excellent. There is a search function. I've occasionally been frustrated in trying to find specific information.

I have the Cd repair manual from Mercedes. It has all the information on it. I think I paid around $125 for it. Just call your local dealership and they will give you the phone number to order it.

About how much do you pay for it? Is it something you pay monthly, yearly, or whenever you need to log on?

Thanks Ill give them a call.

Check the resources page on my website, there's an SLK manual there.

Good looking out bro! You have alot of info on there that might be what Im looking for. Ill take a look at the page later tonight more in detail.

You wouldnt be able to track down info on a 03 SL would you?

Anyways thanks again.

Prices are on their web site, but its $25 per year, $15 for next vehicle. They offered me $15 renewal the 2nd year and recently offered me $30 for 5 years which I took as I tend to keep vehicles for a while.

hey dick that web address isn't working for me did you type it right?

found it.. www.alldatadiy.com doubled up the ta haha do you know the difference between all data and all data diy? it honestly seems to be no difference but you can link from one to the other as seperate sites so it seems like there would be a difference

Sorry about that. I believe alldata is for professional service shops and alldatadiy is for private parties. The terms of use and rates are probably different - I haven't really checked.
