All convertibles suffer this shaking to some extent or another - it's called 'Scuttle Shake' in the trade.

The SL's shake is minimal and should hardly be noticed - however, I do find the ride slightly better when the hard top is on. Scuttle is reduced to zero as on most conventional coupes.

If yours is particularly noticeable it's time to start checking things!
