1983 500SL - I was trying to change the rear licence plate and unscrewed the plate securing the trunk lock solenoid and pushed it slightly forward to access the licence plate bolts from behind. I then shut the trunk - now it won't open even though the central locking is set to open - can anyone help![:(]

  1. Remove the heads '83 380

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Today's the day I'm finally removing the heads to track down my tick that sounds just like a lifter (but isn't) and the reason for low compression on #6 (probably connected with the tick). I figured I'd better check with you guys first. I got to the stage where I need to remove the air intake...

  5. 560SL Fuel Pump Relay Module

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    I have a question about installing a new fuel pump relay module for my 89' 560SL. There are a few older threads that I read, and my question is about the orientation of the module. First, I was unable to "snake" my arm through the opening in the glove box. So, I removed the glove box, then...

  6. 1973 350slc 4-speed (11/2019 purchase)

    R/C107 SL/SLC Class
    Hey, it’s a V8 stick shift, and it’s an SLC. Sure, might as well create a thread for it. 107.023.10.006310 Title says 1974, but I believe it to be a 1973 with a plastic coolant overflow (started in early 1973 models) and a dash clock (ended in late 1973 models) bottle and this information...
