Engine Parts for the Mercedes-Benz R172 SLK

Looking for engine parts for a R172 Mercedes-Benz SLK (2011–2020)? We carry 10 tested, supplier-direct engine parts matched to this chassis. Common engines on this chassis include the M270, M271, M274. Body styles covered: Cabriolet, Coupe.

Every part is bench-checked, visually inspected or boxed-and-sealed before dispatch and ships via Courier Guy or Aramex from our Centurion (Pretoria) yard to all 9 South African provinces — typically 1–3 working days door-to-door. Used parts carry our standard 3-month fitment warranty; refurbished and recon items carry an extended cover documented on your invoice; new aftermarket items ship with the manufacturer warranty.

Confirming fitment on a r172 engine spares

SLK R172 engine parts can vary by year, engine variant, body style, and pre-facelift vs facelift trim. Buyers also search for these as used r172 engine parts — same physical part, different naming convention; we list both interchangeably so the quote reflects what's actually in stock. If you can share your VIN or a clear photo of the original part, we'll confirm the exact match before you pay — that's the fastest way to avoid a wrong-fit return. Don't have the VIN handy? The year, model variant (e.g. C200, C220 CDI, C63 AMG), and a description of the part is usually enough.

What we stock and how it's priced

Our R172 engine parts catalogue covers used (good working order, original Mercedes-Benz), refurbished (rebuilt with new wear items), recon (factory-grade rebuild), and new aftermarket (OEM-equivalent, boxed and sealed) options where available. Prices start from R 399 for entry-level pieces and rise with condition tier and OEM number coverage. Most parts on this page are for the R172 (2011–2020) but several also fit r172-platform siblings — we'll flag interchangeability on your quote.

Workshops and trade buyers can ask about volume pricing on a single quote — strip alerts (we WhatsApp you the moment we strip a matching chassis) are also available.
