Hi
As above, i'm soon going to be on the look out for an SLK230 around 2002/2003, after reading various threads i'm left wondering about the possibility of rust problems on a car of this age, i have a 1997 astra(bought new) that has very little rust at all, so i would think that a merc shouldn't have any probs at all, am i right ?
Also the fluid changes on an auto gearbox, I've been told by a rebuilder that if the fluid is pink and showing no trace of any brown in it then it should be ok, also told this by V/hall dealer, though neither would be too worried if i needed a new one, of course it's cheaper change it than a new box, i just wondered why it was necessary, BTW mrs toyota's sealed for life!
Could anyone explain what a MAF is please ?
Would i be better looking for one that has had the mobilo kept up to date or should i risk it given what main dealer service prices are likely to be ?
i don't know what they'll cost either, any figures ?
sorry if i appear to be asking a lot of questions but this will be my first venture into luxury (expensive) motors
thanks in advance hal
