New owner?s
New SLK 32 owner 22ooo miles 2002 Calif car one owner.
I pick it up in about 40 min.
I am a big reader of the books for the car. I can not wait.
I am just a bit worried that there is no dip stick! My wife said I am the Dip stick
( Thats another story)
Any way. I am out raged that there may not be even limited slip.
Please tell me a hand built engin has a dip stick.... And if not,, "can I add one easy".?
I know I could do it with a lot of work , just not going there.
I would like to check and see and smell my dang oil.
Any info guys.
Also would my Posi 3erd member from my 16V W201-34 fit in a SLK rear end?
Thanks
I will post some shots soon. She is Black on Black

Thanks.
Mine does to. Just found it.
Love it, and my wife Loves it.
I gots say AMG shame on them for not having a Limited slip. ... My other M.B. prod. have posi.
Turn off esp and all i get is one wheel spin. Go dyno mode and more of the same. AMG are driver cars.. ( seems not in America) Thay Should have posi!
and the rear bushing are so soft that it tork steers. Even my old 190 16v came with upgraded ( harder rockwell tested ) bushing for this very problem from the factory
I love the car so tight for a convert. But if I did not want a drivers car I could just of got a non AMG.
10 -15 years ago in my fortys I said life is too short not to have posi.
I want to have more AMGs but if thay will not put posi in I will have to keep my older stuff.
Have been looking at a 06 c55 4 door for the wife and i.
But not now. Thay seem to not want to compete with the drivers feel of BMW. And I do not ever want a BMW. But DANG IT wheres the FEEL of steering and posi AMG???
I can not beleive I am the only one whos feels this.
Any body else have some input?
I can (not) find anything for our cars. Oh theres chrome crap, chrome roll bars. chrome this & that.
I want driver stuff. Not chrome.
On a lighter note. My wife giggels like shes in High school when she gets on it. Theres value in that.
Thanks again
Peter
