Hi,
Any advice re 2011 SLS Coupe not starting? Used the car only 10 days ago. Kept on battery conditioner. Might this be a Starter Motor, SAM module or Prefuse Module issue?
Had the car since 2016 when the battery was replaced. 9k miles from new.
Here she is ...
Doesn't crank at all. No relay clicks either. Starter button flashes.Unhappy
Thanks.

Now that's something you don't see everyday. Not even on the infamous social networks at least.
If I got this correctly the beast is still in Australia, right?
Funny info about Mercedes Benz Japan, though... Would really like to hear more about it.
Massive congratulations on your car! Not quite my cup of tea but very very interesting indeed.

I dont mind the matte black just because its factory. Most dont think the paint thinking its after market. Another issue is every other car you see on the road these days has a matte paint even Hyundai... but back in 2010, this must be something else.
I do have a special connection with this car. 6 years ago when I placed a deposit on a 300SL, that deal didnt go through so I used the deposit on a silver SLS with the same dealer. Before it was delivered to me from interstate, I was lying on my bed thinking about that matte black SLS which was at Sydney Motor Show 2010, just wondering where it was. The very next day a friend texted me a photo of a matte black SLS which he saw at a luxury car dealership that just came onto the market, he knew I recently acquired the silver SLS and thought it would be interesting to show me another SLS. I basically dashed out to the dealership straight away and traded the Silver SLS which I havent even sat in yet.. and the rest is history. lol.

Yes in Australia. Unfortunately, after putting on record they wont make another one in this spec, they went ahead and made another 3 for Japan and I think 7 roadsters in this blackbird spec. although all of them are LHD and with carbon fibre center console. Im gutted my car only has the standard silver console, but its a clear distinction from the other blackbirds. Also has a plaque on the door jams

Man, the plot-twist! What a great story..! Thanks for sharing.
And yes I'm 100% with you about the matte black painting. In 2010 it must have been a neck breaker, no doubt about that! But eventually it got a little "too mainstream" if you know what I mean.
I still respect a lot a factory setup/livery/color schemes, specially if it means anything else underneath it.
Keep those pictures coming mate! And enjoy it at it's fullness.
