my 2000 slk 230 K when driven at low speed under load, ie. steep hairpin roads sounds like a tractor, the dealer assures me that that they all sound the same. It would be good to hear from anybody who has the same concern.

Hiya Brian
If the noise you are talking about is a harsh rasping noise under hard acceleration. Then Yes. they are all like that. That is all the vehicles which are fitted with the 111engine. This engine is very harsh sounding compared with its predecessor.
Sorry I can't give you any better news!

Hi Andy
Thanks for the response, yes it sounds like a manifold blow, never mind just have to drive faster?
