92 SL1 Battery draw in cold weather by Erik
I'm in Canada (Ottawa) and in the winter I'm having quite a bit of problems with the battery. The alternator is pretty new so this is not the problem. I had the battery checked few days ago and at the store they said that it was ok (but I still think it might be the cause). The battery goes...

$3500 engine in '95 SW2, worth it? by [email protected]
Is it worth dropping in a new engine, or simply letting the repair shop make it disappear? It only has 78k miles, so the body and interior are quite intact.

20W-50 in SL1? by Joe
1990's SL1's are notorious for eating oil due to sticking rings... Anyone ever tried running 20W-50? It's 13 degrees outside, I have 20W-50 in the car and it seems to start just fine except for a 2-3 second "valve tap" as the think oil tries to migrate. Think I'm risking a starter, oil pump,...

S series fuel pump wiring by Private
I was unable to start one of my S series cars after a period of non use. It acted like it was out of fuel and I suspected someone had siphoned the tank. I added fuel but still no start. After lengthy trouble shooting I discovered that the fuel pump wiring behind the left rear wheel was broken. I...

I have a 1996 SL2 there is some oil in the # 4 spark plug well. The Valve cover gasket has been replaced twice and after I clean the oil out of #4 well in about a week or so there is oil on the well wall and some at the bottom. It only goes in well #4.

Question about torque by Osgood Z'beard

2001 SL1-STARTS THEN STOPS NO GAUGES by brent08
In the fall, after a major rainstorm, my car wouldn't start. The engine would crank, turn over, and then die. After about a day of attempting, I had it towed and when the car was let down at the service station, it suddenly worked. The service station ran it for codes and couldn't figure anything...

96 SL2 SES (0133 and 0304) by Simon
I used an OBDII reader to read out the code from my 96 SL2(90K mileages). It is 0133 (CO2 Sensor) and 0304 (4th Cylinder Misfire). Are these serious issue? If it only affects engine performance, I don't want to spend any extra effort on this car. Thx.

98 SL2 Automatic Transmission Hesitates Shifting Into Reverse by Richard Davies
When the transmission is hot, there is a 1 to 2 second pause when shifting from Park into Reverse. If I'm not thinking and step on the gas, the engine revs and the shift results in quite a jolt which I'm sure is not good for the transmission. If you just give it a little time, the shift occurs...
