coolant

I have an SL280 R129 and want to change/flush the system and replace with a good anti freeze/coolant. Can anyone recommend the best stuff to use please? Have trawled through past posts and searched the internet but to no avail.

When and how long should that pump be running? I fitted a new one a couple of days ago and now I can hear it humming when I start the car on the morning and it runs more or less until the car reached its proper temperature . I never noticed it running before. I can hear the new pump humming...

I have a 2013 E220 that seems to have developed a slow coolant leak (requires around 0.5 litres every 1000 miles or so). I originally tried replacing the header tank cap as I thought it was leaking however the issue remains. I think I have located a leak visually and have attached pictures of...

Hi All I have a 61 plate W212 E250 purchased as an approved used, I've had it for nearly 12 months without issue, a couple of weeks ago however I got a coolant warning light come on, took it into the dealer who topped it up, they were too busy to do any further checks. I then took it into...

Had coolant check light flash up, checked coolant and was just under half of tank. When engine warmed up and switched off and on the lift disappears. Anyway when cold I poured in some 100% Antifreeze (from MB) and then the light disappeared. What's worrying is this is the second time I've...

Hi Guys, Im looking for a coolant reservoir for Mercedes A-CLASS A-180 W176 Year 2013. where can i get that online ? thanks,

So after a dreaded 'top up coolant' warning on my CLS63, I checked the water level and it's pretty much where it's been for the last 6 months Oil level has gone down very slightly if anything, not risen, no excessive white steam from exhaust even in this cold weather, only thing I can think of...

Hi all Drove 10mins to the beach this morning. Got there and noticed a little steam coming out from the front grille. Popped the bonnet, the front long narrow radiator seemed to be the source. Confused because I thought this was a gearbox cooling rad, should be full of atf which surely wouldn't...

Anybody had any experience with these...? May help with overheating issues. Who's Who in Industry

Had a message on MFD of the W218 CLS 350 CDI to top up coolant level on a cold start this morn. Message has not come back on afterwards as of yet. If it transpires that the coolant requires topping up (after I have checked the level tomorow) then would it make any difference if I was to use a...

Could someone kindly tell me where to find the correct coolant level indicator on the above. I suspect I'm being dense, but the handbook is not at all helpful and there are no obvious 'Max'/'Min' marks that I can see on the tank.

Hi, I'm going to do a coolant change on my car ( 2007 W 211 E280 cdi ) can someone please let me know what the cooling system capacity is. Thanks in advance

Last few days it's been quite cold maybe 6c Switched car on in the morning yesterday got check coolant level, took it for a 10 minute drive once car reached operating temp, switched car off and on and warning message disappeared. Thought nothing more of it. Then today morning, same message...

Hi I have just got hold of a 1979 450 SL which has been garaged for 10 years. I am changing all of the fluids but not sure what coolant to use? Can anyone point me in the right direction!

My coolant visit workshop comes up on the computer and the car is in limp mode and the fan comes on straight away. Does anyone know what is causing this please.

I have a 2014 c220 coupe 2014 and i noticed that the coolant liquid needs to be refilled. Strangely the engine oil level is rising and its colour is changing. What could be the problem. Im taking the car to an authorised service station next week. Car is still under UK warranty but at the moment...

hello my c class coupe coolant light comes on just the symbol not anything else like top up coolant on the display as it does when you unplug the coolant level sensor but it goes out when the car reaches 90° all help appreciated thanks

I've been lurking here for quite some time using the search function and have managed to perform quite a few jobs myself on my 02 ML 500 as a result, including transmission oil/filter change, engine oil change, secondary air injection pump service, EGR clean and more recently work on the cooling...
