Doors not closing properly
Both of my doors will not shut tight when closed. My wife has a CLK350 that the windows drop down an inch before and after closing the doors. My SLK230 does not do this.
Does the SLK230 windows also drop a little to allow the door to close tight when shut, or do they just stay put?
I noticed if i dropped the window all the way down and close the door hard, it generally latches. Some times it will not.
Anyone else have this problem? Windows suppose to go down a little or not? Or - is it just a door alignment issue.
Next item on agenda: small leak in locking hydraulic cylinder above passenger seat. Ever so small drip. now the red button for the roof comes on and makes noise for no reason at all. I suspect low fluid level in the pump.

Regardig the leak,
The hydraulic cylinder needs to be repaired or replaced so do not use the top.
I recomend repairing all 5 at the same time.
