Edd, I hope that this message meets with your approval. When you left Wheeler Dealers the reason to watch was gone and I’ve never watched another episode. You were the reason to watch.
Edd you are the man and wheeler dealer show is all about you not Mike, any fool can buy an old car. Make videos of your own that we can all enjoy. Keep on keeping on.
How often should you change the oil in the compressor and where can I get it from? all parts places don't sell compressor oil in the UK it's supposed to be LC delco even Mercedes didn't have it. Could I use any brand of compressor oil?
The hydraulic fluid on my pump is low and I want to add more hydraulic fluid but the Allen wrench bolt is extremely hard to loosen and get off as it is in there for 24 years now. The car is 1998 MB SLK 230. Is there a proper video for adding hydraulic fluid for the roof pump in the trunk? Thank you.
I´ve seen things you humans wouldn't believe, buying a CBR that was requiring a new cam chain and valve work, that got sorted filling the empty fuel tank 🙃😝
🤣 of course, that's what we ladies are looking for... simple relay, fuse, you know...! But this was enlightening. 1999 MB SLK230, and she's feeling her age.
I want to buy a very nice SLK 200, it has only 66 800 kms on odometer but the dealer told me the roof stopped working this winter. Should I still buy the car and how much would it cost me to fix the roof ?
Hi mate, Currently my roof is open and cannot close, when i press the close button, the window go down but nothing happen after that. i took it to my mechanic and they accidently pull the right cable and it broke. what can i do to close the roof now. please help. thanks
My roof stopped functioning and I had to close the roof manually. Now the boot won't raise when I attempt to raise the roof. I am not receiving an error signal from the roof switch. I recently added hydraulic fluid to the pump (the proper Mercedes fluid.) Any thoughts?

always a great job by Edd, except that the car as shown in the pictures (see brake bleeding) is all rusted underneath, probably due to the salt used on icy roads.
You are lucky it is a face lift slk 230 (repeat indicators in the mirror housing, as the Early version has a bigger supercharger and and electric clutch (does not rotate until engine is at 2500 rpm). and the supercharger is a pig to remove.
They are plastering Edd's face all over the UA-cam channel because the show was better with him. No disrespect to Ant, he's a fine mechanic, but WD with Edd is somply lightning in a bottle.
@@RandoUploader3 i watched this show beacuse of ED the way he does the mechanics is just amazing i dont know but certain vibe about this guy ever since he left i didn't watch even a single episode...
where y’all at i got two of these cars one is the same as the one he is working on and the other one is a 1999 and the dealership charged me 1,665 just for the gear shifter and i have a whole parts car 🤦🏽♀️ i need my top yoo go down and my throttle position sensor replaced and i don’t like too do it myself bc the car is very delicate all i did was clean my car sprayed something on the dash not even the gear shifter and it somehow found a way down there cause it too mess up i need someone that’s not gon charge me 3000$ for something simple sooo pls respond 😭 u probably 3 days away tho
Well, since these clips are very old by now the quality can seem pretty bad, i think the slk episode was released back in 2012, Edd stopped working with Wheeler Dealers 2017 and was replaced by Ant
Mike was always a bullshitter, that’s what made him successful. Together with Edd, they made the best car show. The move to the States was the nail in the coffin. Selling out to Velocity just finished it off. It was Mikes baby, but he did not need to have more air time than buying then selling. It’s return to the UK will not help it survive, the rot set in when Edd left.
So if you switch around pump hoses on say your hypothetical bosses car that he blathers endlessly about to the point you want to blow your brains out it would cause a real mess eh?
I prefer Ant as a restorer. Edd was fine, and people got stuck on him, but Ant is a level above in terms of skill. Never saw Edd make an exhaust from scratch. He just got Mike to buy one. Edd is a mechanic. Ant is an engineer. The show just needs more Ant and less Mike.
The SLK is the coolest car Mercedes ever made,anybody that have one absolutely loves it,any year,any color,any model
I have one, sl amg and sls are also very cool
Edd, I hope that this message meets with your approval. When you left Wheeler Dealers the reason to watch was gone and I’ve never watched another episode. You were the reason to watch.
It didn't meet his approval 😥
Edd is the one who made this show what it was and will never be again!
(Yawn)
@@patagualianmostly7437 shut up

Mike is the part I always skip. I have no patience for him at all... just a fat loud blob
I DONT EVEN OWN A SLK. YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO GREAT I AM BUYING ONE MAYBE NEXT WEEKEND.. GREAT VIDEO BTW. VERY INFORMATIVE. WISH YOU WERE HERE IN USA
Great video Sir. I am currently working on my slk 200.I love German engineering. Vetri South Africa 🙏🇿🇦🇿🇦🙏

This is the best explanation about mb slk 230
I did see on net
Thank very much
And God bless you 🙏
Why not change the SC oil before fitting a secondhand part?
Did you change the two bearings and the seal before installing it??? or did you replace the entire supercharger???

we need the links to your connections to get any of those parts featured in the video you produced for this segment, Please ?
Any information on this SLK these days ? Last time I checked, the MOT wasn’t renewed in November 2020.
Now in a collection in Derby !
I'd need you to fix my car roof, I've 2008slk roof stuck can't closed. Please where I can find someone near me to help fix my car, any suggests Edd?
it Is the later version. smaller charger. the earlier one has electric clutch and a bigger charger. much more difficult to remove
In real life....its never so simple as ''the relay''
Never, also wasnt in his case either.
If you're lucky enough for the problem to just be a fuse, you are a different kind of human lol.
Never in many years had a simple problem. Was I cursed with bad luck? Nope, just poor engineering from car makers.

this is what i exactly looking for..
and worder is there a way open roof by manually?? mine is not working..
Anyone knows what kind of oil should you use for the hydraulics of the roof?
Same oil as power steering, basically go for CHF 11 hydraulic fluid, (green label)
2011 SLK 300 hydraulic fluid leak when roofs close over your head. How and what? To fix . Help!
Hi,
I have the same car and my roof is not working. Where is your workshop?
I need to check my car with you

Hi bro i am looking to get repair my peugeot 107 2009 front bumper because hit from front driver side

Buenas tardes, donde los puedo encontrar en idioma español latino? Saludos
If Edd isn't getting a fair share of residuals, none of these videos should be shown .
Edd's the gold standard, but I confess Ant really grew on me. Most especially
his high skill level.
@@WayneLynch69 That's not the topic, but sure - let's describe what's growing on you.
You are lucky it is a face lift slk 230 (repeat indicators in the mirror housing, as the Early version has a bigger supercharger and and electric clutch (does not rotate until engine is at 2500 rpm). and the supercharger is a pig to remove.
Early SLK are crap ! Facelift are wonderful !
Can you tell all the facelift pros?
I have one 2003
So amazing! I love it. ❤👍😘
0:24 wish you changed the callipers to, they looked rotten 😀
you for got about the special oil fro the super charger which should be changed ever 40k miles
Did ed china come back? Or what is this?

@belly tripper sad loif bruh
What about wheel arch rust on these motors ? Can it be cured ? Is it even worth throwing money at it ?? If you are looking to buy one … look closely

i did this on a CLK 200k with newer (M271) engine. even more difficult, it took days 😂
dont talk to me about the m271 engine its most over engineered engine in history and that timing chain that wouldent be suitable for a kids bicycle
@@drone_tours ~247000km (153k miles) and still running 👀
@@rimax82 there's nothing really wrong with them just replace the timing chain every 95k miles and service it regularly
@@drone_tours I actually used a bicycle chain tool to drive the pin in on my new chain. Couldn't believe how small it is 🤣
@@MarkoVukovic0 yeah the problem is that the engine is too powerful for the chain and over time all the torque stretches it
Go EDD !!!!!!!!!!
He is back! TAN TAN TAN TATATATAN
How to watch with full episode. This is really disapointed by watching not complete vidio.
type in exact episode you are looking for: next part come up Edd China Mercedes Slk
This dudes too awesome
Thank you kind sir!
My pistons are leaking fluid I can’t find anything on how to fix it anyone have a clue?
Replace
Solid machine R170..
Why they reccord with such low quality cameras?
Well, since these clips are very old by now the quality can seem pretty bad, i think the slk episode was released back in 2012, Edd stopped working with Wheeler Dealers 2017 and was replaced by Ant
Edd should go back with Mike and make great videos together again
@@linusholmqvist3375 in 2012 there were much much higher quality cameras. National geographic always had top Notch quality even years before.
They were waiting for you to come and tell them how to do their job.
@@slasher9883 I dont think so
Edd can't you see what a bunch of UA-camrs are doing? Make your own channel reviving any car on a budget.
Mike was always a bullshitter, that’s what made him successful. Together with Edd, they made the best car show. The move to the States was the nail in the coffin. Selling out to Velocity just finished it off. It was Mikes baby, but he did not need to have more air time than buying then selling.

hint, hint...
Depending on Edd to boost views. 🤨
Lets face it, old Wheeler Dealer episodes with Edd were a whole lot better than the new Americanized format.
Really? So your implying they shouldn't do that?
He must comeback
@@garrykoalman3684 Indeed

the 2000 model was closer to $50,000 in the USA
Coches duros y algunos potentes
Why did germoney so overengeneered that roof so much
Changing the tie rod on one was a bitch for me
我有一辆R170，现在很难找零件，
Not sure if it's the camera angle but you look huge in there
The SLK R170 is a really small car - compared to other cars, keep this in mind!
SLK are 10x better than MX5s , twice the power and don't look like council house crew like in an MX !
🤣
Hahaha

Not as fast as Scotty Kilmer
swop out is Americanese language. please use english..change the pump
No Mike, I won't subscribe. We liked Ed, you've ditched him and I've ditched you.
It was a crappy car. I regretted owning it. The roof broke... Tons of small problems. Time to go electric
Ant is so much better
No
For the kind information red is way way more better than ant so if you want ant then get Lost
Nope
