  3. Hi finm

    Seem to have an intermittent issue with the roof closing. It will open the boot lid as normal but won't lift the roof up. I can hear the motor running but something is not engaging to lift it. It takes about five minutes of messing about then for no obvious reason it works fine. It's a 2007/8 SLK200. Roof mech has recently been checked/lubricated by our local independent (he couldn't replicate the problem). Car has done about 50k miles.

    Any thoughts?
     
  4. You don't say how old your slk is but when I had this problem on a
    2000 clk it was the relay on the hydraulic pump. To test you can
    swap it with fuel pump relay. If this is the issue don't buy a new
    relay from Merc your local auto store will be 10th of the price.
    oops sorry you do say how old it is
