I love the build, please keep us informed as much as you can. I got a 85 biturbo E my self it’s also my little project.
have the exact same problem for a 2012 regal. thanks for posting. Wish you showed the exact repair however
Mine is broken. Does not snap in place.
Good job, I've three of them and I'm under restoration with one, a 1985 model. Contact me if you need something, cheers from Italy
Please can you tell us where did u get the black series body
@@fastMoroccandriver previous owner installed it about 8 years ago. Try Googling "SL65 black series body kit" or "R230 black series body kit"
@@Technician26 ok thank u its a great car
i've decided to to a 5.3 l33 swap using a t56 trans and a bmw 540i rear end.
@Melkor54 sounds like a fun setup. I've been thinking about getting a wrecked 2007-2008 Quattroporte with the Duoselect trans (making it use the stick and clutch pedal) and swapping them into the biturbo.
Gallardo - 2006 . Hooked up to a trickle charger Bonnet open . Remote lost synch , not working . Manual key insert into door lock and turns 90 degrees in both directions and the door still won't unlock .
Yikes
thanks bro! you saved me money !!
So, it’s not a black series?
No, a real black series is a highly modified SL65. This is an SL55 with a black series wide body kit. Go watch Doug Demuro's video on SL65 black series to learn more.
I know - that was my point. The post says Black Series
@@Technician26 so youre a faking fraud, got it 🤡🤡🤡
the engine has drop in steel sleeves with orings, unlikely there is a water jacket issue
did you find a good source for filters etc?
Ebay motors had some that I liked.
I don’t have the money to have this problem
bought an 85 with only 16,000km on it...interior is pretty shot as it sat outside in texas for 10 plus years but mechanically it seems pretty sound, plan on a full restomod on this beauty
This one shows 90k miles on the odometer
Is the body kit made of what material? I hope it's not made off of fiberglass?
I have to be honest with you --- its not worth the effort or money. Part it out. IF it was a running car and complete it would have a chance. At least its a manual car. The auto cars have frankly horrible performance. its very common that the fuseboxes burn out and mechanics who don't understand what's going on jerry rig the wiring. Replacing just one of the turbo's is more than the car is worth -- and it has 2. And they go bad. If the water pump seizes the timing belt breaks -- and they are not very good water pumps and the bearings go bad from just sitting. There's a reason why these are so cheap.
Good luck
Cool car. Body style reminds me of the old Alfas which I happen to adore. ☮️💙
geez, good luck to you sir. That looks like a lot of work, and i thought my rusted w124 would take a lot of time...
Awesome project car, K swap i, fix the rust and rip out the old electrical system and you will have an awesome car.
Pretty much the only way to go with something like this!
The Surname of this Car is KILLER in Italy 😅
Great of you for saving this darling. The car is clearly underestimated, even though it has/had many teething problems (The Biturbo was designed and built within a year due to the impending bankruptcy of the parent company!!!) The timing chain is a problem, but there are now many, better replicas. Carburetors always cause problems, but there are many forums on the internet that have useful tips and addresses. There are some Biturbo clubs in Europe that can also help. I hope you complete the restoration successfully and wish you all the best!!!
I was waiting for Clarkson, Hammond and May to show up
Yeah, a decal in a side window with "Don't crush me Clarkson!" would be fun to have. 😂
Love these although a potential bottomless pit of money. Personally I'd remove all the spoliers and just make it clean. They are really understated 80s cool
That Maserati biturbo in place of a Toyota Supra? As an Italian I think that's a bad deal...Good luck!!
if you have any wuestion, you can always ask the smell like gasoline channel, he has an old quatroporte and he knows some people that are expert on these
The 2 cars have almost nothing in common.
@@mikelfrance-l6x no sorry he has a biturbo sorry for the mistake
This Babt needs an Interior Job
2003 m320 , I can’t find the part. correct name for it
Any idea why my key won’t turn at all? Trying to remove my hitch the the key will not turn to the unlocked position
So its a clone ?
The hot water valve leaked on my LG. You should have changed the hot side too. Hot water does more damage. You got me thinking I should change out the cold side too.
I'm planning to replace the washer and dryer in the next year or so anyway. The door switch started giving me an intermittent error last week. It's 12 years old, so, this might be the last repair it gets from me!
ok but you didnt upload a vid of fixing it, i know what the problem is i have the same but you never showed replacing it
I fixed it by replacing the accelerator pedal. It's got 1 electrical connector and I think 1, maybe 2 nuts/bolts IIRC. Stick your head down there with a flashlight, it's an easy job.
@Technician26 where did you find the pedal for sale?
@thiggmayo117 pretty sure I got one on Amazon, but it might have been ebay.
Your paint looks nice!
Did you ever end up fixing the problem? i have the same issue on a 2012 and cant seem to find a replacement element for the seat cushion
I took the seat out and disassembled it part way, and found a broken wire to the lower back heater grid on the driver seat. Wire was broken right at lowest part of the back rest where it attached to the heater grid. Soldered the wires back together and adjusted the wire routing a little.
Oh, and you can find generic seat heat grids, but try to match the resistance of the factory seat heat grids if you can.
Looks good..I likey!
Can you make a video of how you replaced the packs?
I had the pack out and torn apart twice, but I only took pictures. The hardest part is using a couple of long wood clamps to squeeze the cell stacks together during the reassembly. Also, I had the help of a forklift for getting the HV pack in and out through the trunk, which was also a big pain. But after replacing 6 weak cells, it's been working great for almost a year now.
It’s rare to look for a video and find my same bike. Same paint scheme and all. 😎👍
Thanks for the video; having the same issue with my 04 SL55. What diagnostic tool is that?
It's an Autel MS919
Name of your body kit I want 1
Not exactly sure who made it because it was already on the car when I bought it. A Google search for "R230 SL black series wide body kit" turns up several results.
How did you get this in the states??!
Found it on FB Marketplace. The SL55 was sold here in the states, the bodywork can be found on ebay.
Sl r230 with black series widebody is a lifehack which only few are aware off :). Whata a looker, ypu put that thing next to ferraris or porsche and probably it will look more badass, thats my next car for sure but dont know if gonna build one from scratch or buy a ready project
What’s the size rims and tires on the back ?!?
325/25 ZR20 but I wish they had a little more sidewall. Like 325/30 ZR20 would have been better I think. The fronts are 275/30 R20
for 184k the car looks good, you might want to check tavarish video's, he has an SL55, he had some similar issues and he fixed them on camera, brake warning is one of them.
Where can you purchase that body kit ?!
It was already on the car when I got it, and it's been on there at least 7 years now. I think it's still offered for sale on ebay?
Did you ever get to replacing the cells?
Yep, replaced a few cells and it was good for a month or two, then had the check engine light start turning on after charging so I'm replacing a few more cells. Probably should have bought 6 cells the first time around.
Nice car. Needs some tlc but I'm sure you will get it to where you want it to be. If you ever want to sell her, I'm interested
That engine power cut is caused by the charge cooler pump failure. It's an easy fix.
Lovely car. The SL55 AMG is timeless. Who would believe that it was designed over 20 years ago! That car which you have seems to have only minor issues. I look forward to following your progress on getting that beautiful car sorted. I also own a 2003 SL55 AMG, I have owned it since 2008! I love it.
Very cool. The lights down in the intake area would really transform the front. I assume you still have this car. In your area with a c55. See you around
I have the same problem I plan to fix on my 04 sl500. How’d you do your interior? I wanna do mine
Couple owners before me had it done. It's diamond pattern quilted Alcantara.
