The supercharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine in the SLK230 Kompressor roadster is rated at 192 hp. Mercedes-Benz claims a 0-to-60-mph acceleration time of 4.8 seconds. Mercedes-Benz claims the AMG SpeedShift five-speed-automatic transmission produces shifts that are up to 35 percent faster than those of a conventional automatic. The hottest engine in the SLK-Class lineup is the supercharged 3.2-liter V-6 in the SLK32 AMG, which whips up 349 hp and 332 pounds-feet of torque. Leather trim and dark bird’s-eye maple are used. Sport seats in the SLK32 AMG are upholstered in Nappa leather and feature integrated headrests and what Mercedes-Benz calls “substantial” side bolsters. Maximum cargo space is 9.5 cubic feet, but that space shrinks to 3.9 cubic feet when the top is down. In addition to wood trim, the SLK320 has eight-way power seats and a telescoping steering wheel.
Standard equipment includes dual-zone air conditioning, an interior air filter, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a Bose cassette stereo. A front air dam incorporates AMG fog lights. Twin-five-spoke, 17-inch alloy wheels on the SLK32 AMG hold P225/45ZR17 tires up front and P245/40ZR17 tires in the rear. The SLK32 AMG gets a recalibrated, reinforced suspension with unique spring rates and shock-absorber valving. The door mirrors feature integrated turn-signal flashers. The trunk opens at the front to accept the roof or at the rear to reveal a small luggage compartment. Push a button and the articulating metal roof rises or retracts automatically in about 25 seconds. Mercedes-Benz’s smallest sports car features sculpted rocker panels and sits on a 94.5-inch wheelbase - that’s 5 inches longer than the Mazda Miata’s. Redesigned SLK-Class models arrive in the 2005 model year. A Sport Package inspired by the SLK32 AMG is available for regular SLK-Class models. Equipped with polished 17-inch wheels, the Special Edition SLK-Class roadster features a painted grille, a rear spoiler, special sport seats and Nappa leather-covered roll bars.Ī high-performance SLK32 AMG version contains a 349-horsepower supercharged V-6 engine, racing-derived brakes and AMG’s SpeedShift five-speed-automatic transmission. And I fear one day it will cut out at speed and cause an accident.A Special Edition of Mercedes-Benz’s lower-priced retractable-hardtop convertible has joined the lineup for 2004. Car seems to repair itself when it goes on diagnostics hence garage things I'm crazy. I am scared to drive and in tears as I genuinely don't know what to do. Sounds like its coming from near the filter (driver side of engine bay). Listening to engine when in park mode, I hear a click when the car hits 2000 revs. I had no problems yesterday, but today as I waited at the traffic lights she just cut out. Got prepared for emergency stop, pumped accelerator again in a last chance hope and magically she jumped back to life. When I pumped accelerator there was nothing, did this twice, still nothing. Here's where it got dangerous, I was driving along at 60mph, and lost all acceleration. It seemed to work, for two weeks, until this week. Took it to the mechanic and again no codes or faults on diagnostics.ĭid some research on forums and had my cps (crank shaft position sensor) replaced with a genuine Mercedes part.
Where it got stuck again for hours :Oops: Instead the fan sounded like a jet engine (never heard it do this before).Įventually kwik fit got it started and on the ramp. more embarrassingly I was waiting for tracking check, parked up and when went to put car on ramp, it would not start, at all. Then it happened again, maybe a week later. As I pulled into town it cut out, completely, (no engine or power but dash lights stayed on) I waited 5 mins then car started fine. Please, if anyone can help, you may save my day/week/year!Ībout a month ago, my Mercedes ( slk r170 230 kompressor automatic) started playing up.
