SLK AMG 55 Steering wheel

[Mr M]

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble getting hold of an original replacement second hand one as a new part would be £1330. Does anyone know if the R172 will fit the R171 as there seem to be more of theses about at normal prices OR if any of the other models wheels will fit ?

Thanks

Colin.

The R172 wheel does not fit according to slk world. .I'm currently hunting the 030 moseley face lift wheel. German e bay is a good place apparently

Can I ask why you need one? is yours damaged?

A mate had a leather wheel for a Clio of all things recovered by a local company, it was better than new!

Thanks folks.

It was sold to me without the manual mode buttons working on the wheel. I specifically asked when I was 'test driven' by one of the dealers employees, 'do the buttons work' and the reply was 'yes, I'm using them' - which he quite clearly wasn't because they are faulty. More fool me - I should probably have trusted my gut instinct when I arrived to view the car and walked away. That said, I love the car. Just hope I shall be able to resolve the issue soon.
