Catch 22
Добавлен 12 окт 2011
I do car stuff, mainly on my SLK 200 R170 and sometimes music stuff.
Update 3 of living with Hans, the Mercedes SLK200 R1700 (1999). T'was fun, now time to say good bye.
After years of loyal service, lots of you tube how to videos, 50.000+ kilometers, topless [open top] driving and fun times, it is time to say good bye to Hans, the Mercedes SLK 200 R190 M111.946. I will run you through, very casually this time, what I liked, and I didn't like and just drive around a bit and enjoy the last sun set in this, still epic convertible. Whilst the sun sets on this marvel of hard top convertible motoring, I bid you farewell, Hans.

It has been quiet for a while around maintenance and other items for the SLK. In truth, there just wasn't anything wrong with it, so nothing to report. Now however, a few things went wrong and I thought it is time for another update video. This time I didn't really fix anything myself, as I had no time (hey, most of us have jobs, y'know). I did diagnose a few things and supplied all the needed ...

It is not going to win any beauty contests but its is a cost efficient way to prevent further rusting and low labor intensity process. Overall I'd always recommend to go for a full sand down, plastic filler and res...

Why do people explain "why" you might want to do that the video explains? If I opened the video, I already know "why" I am here - what I want to know is "how."
How do you screw when they are broken
Bedankt De Imformatie. I'm doing this today on my 1150RT and you video has been very helpful.
Mine didn't have the cover with 2 screws, right hand drive in uk
Thanks I have exact same issue. Will proceed as you did.
Hi , thanks for your video. Is the same oil to a Slk 230 R170 from 1999 ?
In my SLK, facelift, the siren speaker is not there, I think is under the right weel.
White Caulk 😏
I mean loud speaker .
Did your load speaker worked after the installation ?
Then how do you lock your doors?
Excelent
Literally, the wing is rusting from inside out. You've not dealt with the rust at all. It's like having a capillary burst inside your head, and stick a plaster on your forehead, genius
My goodness, you butchered the car? Cost savings= butchery lolz
idiot
I have my clk 200 NA 1998, and i cant fix one problem with a fault code...(067 - camshaft position sensor L5/1 signal implausibile/missing) I changed 2 new sensor but same problem...but te car start very good..
Way cool and cool cap tip
That's great thanks. But I've a stupid question which I cannot for the life of me find an answer to. On SLK 320 (2000) it just started showing a code of 281 (yours I think was 1800). Any clue as to what the code indicates? Googled it but found nothing that seemed relevant. thanks.
My car won’t start now sounds like battery
its under the car under gas tank next to cat converter
Thanks. Great video
What I do in these tight situations is get my 14mm hex socket and just put a ratchet spanner on the middle of it with tip in the hole and just turn it with ratchet spanner.
Does this disable the alarm going off when jumpstarting? And is it easy to reconnect?
yes, it does, no more alarm noise, ever.
Perfect thanks. My lame story is that I hit my car with my other car. Oh and 35 Euro is a deal. I paid US$80.
40 mins to install..? Every time?
Dear Catch 22, nice video. Do I need to change the screw (bottom or upper)? Or it is OK to just clean and use old ones? Thank you.
did you use the hog rings
It is indicated to install a gas filter on that particular hose. Don't go with a oil catch can because they are crap, the cheap ones. Use a LPG filter for the gaseous state that has a replaceable cartridge . There are ones with an intake and two exhausts that are perfect and are made of a black thick plastic. They are very well suited because they are made to filter oil and water traces in LPG systems. Use a 10 mm interior diameter silicone hose for the intake and exhausts. For the exhaust you will need some simple hose adapter from 10 to 6mm for the two hoses that are going into the cylinder head ports. Like that you won't have any oil deposits in your intake ports and cleaner exhaust gases. Will help with the longevity of your cat and oxygen sensor too.
how to remove radio first??

Interesting vid, thanks for posting! Is the 200K engine a reliable engine?
Does the m111.921 have one?
so did your k and filter make any difference
12 oz. Transmission oil (rust inhibitor) 4 oz. PB Blaster (Penetration) 1 oz. Dawn dish Soap (Surface tension) Some of this for fighting rust 2 yrs... .. . Used in a spray bottle it spits rather than sprays so I use a brush. Use WD-40 for joint pain, it Works (mostly fish oil I hear).
“Damper pedal” = sustain pedal. The term you’re looking for is “soft pedal.” I agree this naming convention is hella confusing though.
If you follow that pipe attached to the side if the throttle body you will find a suprise
