New SLK55 owner.
Hello fellow members. Been wanting a SLK55 for a long time and today I finally picked up one. And I must add what a fun car this is. even more fun than a C63. I been a Merc enthousiast since I was a kid and usually change cars every 3-4 years. I been a member on here for a long time and I'm hoping to continue for a long time on the R171 section, although this section is not as alive as some of the others.

Or point me somewhere I can get them for a decent price? Some of my previous cars: http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...3/d1116c48.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...159059eb73.jpg http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...Picture562.jpg |

Also planning to change the steering wheel to something more updated and with proper peddle shifters! |

Does this car display engine temperature somewhere in the dash? I looked and couldn't find it. And also, are all these cars opted with sat radio? I hit the 'sat' button and it displays 'no satellite radio'? I looked in the trunk and I see this cables (pic below) hanging out as if something is disconnected? http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps2c9b79e3.jpg |

Mercedes-Benz partnered with Sirius XM Radio to offer Sirius satellite radio as a standard feature. You'll have to order and pay a monthly fee in order to use the Satellite radio system. :rolleyes: |

To display the engine temp, scroll the display until you reach your millage, then hit the up arrow button to display the engine temp. :y

Congrats!!! I'm a newbie too.
I just bought the same Black 2005 model 2 days ago for my wife. Looks identical to yours ... it only had 26,850 miles with one owner. The cables you are seeing in the truck is for the Navigation DVD. The device should be mounted there. I am seeing the same issue with the Sirius radio and had the same question you did. Is there any way to hook up an iPhone? The owner said there isn't but I noticed there is an AUX mode on the Harman Kardon system. |
