2 questions from new member

Just ordered my SLK 55 AMG. Will have it in late October.

1. Can anyone tell me exactly what differences, if any, there are between the 2005 and 2006 model years? (Mechanical differences, not just the deletion of caspian blue and the addition of pewter.) I tried a search but got no results. If this has already been discussed here, please send the thread link.

2. Can anyone tell me where I can find online, perhaps in PDF, the owner's manual for the 06 model year? (The complete manual, not the interactive one.)

Thanks much.

1) There appear to be no material differences. Various "bug fixes" have been incorporated as they have been developed. Option packages are slightly different, but the components are essentially the same. Some features, such as the easy entry seat position memory work slightly differently.

2) Don't know.

1. Thanks, lennyr, for the info. Another question for you on that: Do you know specifically what "bug fixes" were added? Are they documented somewhere?

2. Thanks, samhmbz, for sending the manual, but I didn't get it. Since it's a huge PDF doc, maybe the doc size exceeded your or my host server max. Could you please try it again? Most appreciated.

Shinigami, could you host a video from slk55er? It would be greatly appreciated. If you can't, I understand.

Sure I can host it if he sends it to me.

I received the PDF, and I'm uploading as we speak.

Should take about 10-15 minutes and it'll be available (I'll post the link to it then).

Ok, the file is up here:
http://www.catgirlsparadise.com/imag...r171manual.pdf

If your work filters out words in URL's such as 'girl' (no, the website does not have any adult content on it), then try the other link which is just the IP address:

http://209.208.66.100/images/slkr171manual.pdf

Oh, and do a right click on that link and choose save as.
