SLK280

  • Automatic transmission
  • 12,600 miles

Bought the car on Jul 31, 2011 with 10500 miles. On Sep 7 Engine light came on. Took it to the dealer on 10 Sep and picked vehicle up on 17 Sep at 1130. Some software had been updated and adjusted something dealing w/fuel mixture. Drove car approximately 20 miles and parked for about an hour. Went back into car and Engine light came back on. Took vehicle back to dealer on same day. Picked up vehicle on 20 Sep, was informed that the intake manifold was replace. Drove vehicle home, less than 60 miles, and engine light came on as soon as I turned into driveway. Returned car on 21 Sep 11 to get repaired.

It is now 27 Sep 11 and still do not have car and haven't heard from dealership on the status. Other than the engine light, the car drives great. Just want them to figure out what's causing the problem.
