I notice that my roof is leaking on the right top area. Before I take to the Benz shop, can anyone explain where is the leak coming from??

 

On the right where? Front corner, side?? Post pic or BETTER description.
Front catches may of been over lubed and need a wipe?

sond like you have a hydralic cyliner leaking you need to get it replaced. there is hydralic latches on your front bow that lock the top to the car they are hydralic and somethimes leak

 

I'll post a pic tommorrow. It will better discribe the issue. Its in the top right passenger roof. It has penetrated and caused my interior top fabric to wrinkle due to this issue. Its a real mess.

 

Hey there, I have the same problem, thought is was water leaking, read your post, and took of the interior roof cover, and when the top closed, hydraulic fluid gushed out from the center front hydraulic. My fabric is wrinkled around the right side at the seam, and probably need to replace the interior roof, it is saturated with hydraulic fluid. I have ordered the hydraulic part itself, but any options on the interior roof. Can I order that too?

 

hi i know this post is old but this just happened to my 2004 slk and i would like to know how to fix this leak. help!!!

 

I would get an online subscription to Automotive Repair, Auto Recalls, Automotive Software & TSB's - ALLDATA to show you the procedure for replacement. You can buy a new cylinder for about $360 through Genuine Mercedes Parts or give Klaus Witte a call at 541 902 3214 or email klaus@tophydraulicsinc.com to have yours rebuilt for around $75. I wish I had known about him before I had bought a couple of new ones for my sl. I sent him the one that was leaking to be rebuilt just to have as a spare. there was nothing wrong with the one. I was mistaken that one was leaking, when it was the one above leaking down on the other.
