Follow instructions to a T and you will have success. I had to clip the end off the straight pick to get the c-clip out; just needed a little thicker point on the pick. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works *by B***S on July 8, 2021* Worked great fixed the problem ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed the leak *by M***H on September 20, 2020* 2006 R171 SLK 350, center cylinder started leaking. Supplied pick set did not have the hook pick, but I ended up drilling the 1/8" hole and the C-ring popped out. Would have been nice to know how to relieve hydraulic pressure, if that's even possible. Ended up using a bar clamp to compress the rod to clear the C-ring. Took about 2 hours to perform the procedure. Be careful on the R-171, the hydraulic pump and reservoir is not easily accessible behind the cockpit. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hydraulic Cylinder Roof Repair Kit Compatible With 04-11 Mercedes SLK 280 350 55 AMG R171 - Hydraulic Cylinder Roof Repair Kit U Cup for 04-11 Compatible With Mercedes SLK 280 350 55 AMG R171 - Genuine 000989910310 Mercedes 000 989 91 03 10 / Hydraulic Fluid --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/32396750-hydraulic-cylinder-roof-repair-kit-compatible-with-04-11-mercedes](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/32396750-hydraulic-cylinder-roof-repair-kit-compatible-with-04-11-mercedes) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
