I can't take it anymore

[SL hell]

I have a 95 SL500 which I've had for 4 years, of these 4 years it has been road worthy about 6 months:roll: So far this year I have spent over 5 grand on a new catalytic converter, new fuel sensors, a new suspension pump and a suspension valve that with fitting cost £3200.

After getting my car back just 1 month ago all seemed fine until today it starts missing and I have noticed the suspension oil is low does anyone want to buy my car???

it's very nice. Silver with 103,000 miles any offers happly considered.

Are you paying top dealer money for them working on it., do they understand ADS

 

[BlackC55]

Basingstoke. Last time they had to get an area specialist in as they had no idea what to do.

Sorry for being dumb but what is ADS??

 

[BlackC55]

Active Damping.

Your suspension system

 

[BlackC55]

They can be expensive to run if not looked after. I have one in the workshop that needs so much work as it has been neglected and has been driven hard.

There are loads of SL's about that are problem free.

Black C55 cant say it outright, but I can, may be you should let Black look at it, he knows what he is doing and a super guy that will not break the bank

Cheers guys. I see Black is located in P*rtsmouth, if he's a skate I couldn't possibly let him near my car

Excuse my ignorance: what is a skate in this context, please? A fish I know.

Nothing fishy about him, read his post on here, and he has a nice "plaice"

A Portsmouth football club fan. Something to do with sailors using the mouth of a skate to pleasure themselves, anyway it's not important, I'm big enough to look past such flaws

Bit risky being rude to Portsmouth football fans. Skating on thin ice IMO.

Football does not really bother me much.

I just fix MB's for a living.

At first I thought he might be accusing Black C55 of being too inexpensive by undercutting the dealers - bit of a cheapskate!
