How is the SEL holding up maintenance wise? Are parts getting hard to find?

u/OoohjeezRick C55 AMG 10h ago

I have a relatively low mileage for it's age (105k miles) example, so nothing too major needs to be done right now, but there's a good amount of support for these cars still. Some OEM parts are harder to come by or can be pretty expensive, but there's plenty of aftermarket on FCP euro.

Good to know. Thank you. Always like to ask about first hand maintenance experiences for 80s and 90s German cars. Working up the courage to pull the trigger myself

Love b12 kit. Everything they make is great out of the box. I’ve not had a single bad experience with them.
