Title: 280SL Service Manual CD/Download
Post by: bkfitz on January 26, 2025, 14:33:24
I can't seem to find the CD or a downloadable copy of the blue book Service Manual (or owners manual for that matter).  Can someone help me out with a direct link.  The sl113.org manuals page goes to dead links.

One link in the technical manual was working

Here is the link for the Classic Center
https://www.mercedes-benz-classic-store.com/en/library/technical-literature/?p=2

You can also set up a search on eBay. I have seen a number of the hard-copy books in the last few months, at somewhat reasonable pricing.

Yeah I saw that page on the classic store, unfortunately there is nothing for w113/280sl.

If you are looking for something specific to a W113 you need to look for a Haynes or other aftermarket service publication. The BBB is rather useless and requires a lot of browsing to find anything.

Well.... Here is what I received from MB:

Dear Mr Fitzgerald,

thank you for your inquiry.

Unfortunately we don’t have this DVD in our range anymore.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

More often than not the technical manual on this site is the best source of info.
