the problem could be a small hole in the charcoal canister which is part of the emission control. Would have cost me around $1000.00(!!) to replace but I opted to do it myself by plugging the small hole with a bit of coldweld epoxy putty and a coat of rustoleum flat black paint. Voila! just signme: a 1998 230 slk owner.
