i know it is bad when an ad tells you that it fits but does not.
but what about an ad that tells you that it does NOT fit your car but it does because you have had it in your car for a long time and works fine.
and then the same ad tells at the bottom that this fits and also others that provides the part number.
this is what i would like to understand.
From what I can tell, the sensor(s) you've identified for us are listed as being compatible with the M-B R-171 SLK Series, which went into production for the 2005 model year. Are the engines different compared to the one in our Crossfire? There were some design changes that occurred, one of which was larger displacement (350 vs. 320). Are the Bosch sensors different between the series? Who knows? You're telling us that the sensor(s) for the R-171 Series are installed in your car (no reason to doubt what you are telling us), which would verify to us that the sensors are interchangeable between models. Very Interesting!!
