Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V6 engines in 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class models are known to develop oil leaks around the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gaskets.

Coolant leaks

The coolant system, including the water pump and radiator, may develop leaks, which can lead to overheating if not addressed.

Timing chain issues

Over time, the timing chain and tensioners may wear out or fail, causing a rattling noise and potentially leading to engine misfires or damage.

Ignition coil failure

The ignition coils may fail, leading to misfires, rough idling, and decreased performance.

Crankshaft position sensor failure

A faulty crankshaft position sensor can cause the engine to stall, have difficulty starting, or run erratically.

Mass air flow sensor problems

The mass air flow sensor can become dirty or fail, leading to poor acceleration, rough idling, and reduced fuel efficiency.

Camshaft adjuster magnet issues

Problems with the camshaft adjuster magnets can cause engine performance issues and trigger the check engine light.

Intake manifold gasket failure

The intake manifold gaskets may fail, causing vacuum leaks, rough idling, and decreased engine performance.
