I was losing fluid from the join at the bottom of the expansion tank on my ML55. I bought a replacement tank but it was only when I removed the old tank I saw a rubber O ring seal, which wasn't on the new one.
I called Kms who supplied it but they said the tank doesn't come with the O ring...
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...
Hi
I am new to mb and have a 2005 c200 auto.Can someone please tell me the correct level I have to have in the expansion tank.In the manual it says up to the level indicator but on my one I cannot see a indicator level mark.
After I have taken a photograph I can see on it three small dots is...
It doesn't seem to be the coolant as there's a tank for that, or the brake or power steering fluid.
Whatever it is is thicker than water, and it gets very hot.
On the dip it's below min, so I'm keen to know!
Thanks.
The bottle on my 300CE has brown stains on the inside. Not exactly a major problem but I want to clean it. There are nooks and crannies that cant be reached with a bottle brush or bent coat hanger with cloth stuck to it. So, is there something I can leave it in to soak and clean (removed from...
Looking for a replacement coolant expansion tank for my '94 e220 coupe W124.
Thought it would be easier than spending ages cleaning the sludge out of my current one.
If anyone has one please PM me.
Thanks

The level in my coolant expansion tank dropped sufficiently to bring on the warning light. I topped it up with the engine still warm. I don't know how low it was before hand.
Now the engine is cold the level is much lower than I was expecting.
Where is the correct "cold"...
On the R107, there are two air intake grills beneath the windscreen - the slatted bits either side of the wipers........
Anyways, I've looked at every picture on the EPC and I can't find them - I'm looking for the plastic expansion plugs that keep them in place - there's three on each one...
I have just had my m103 124 serviced.When I collected the car I was shown that there is a slight oil/sludge deposit in the expansion bottle.The coolant has not changed colour and there is no excess pressure build up.
There are a couple of small oil leaks and the core plug located at the left...

Ok, here is the scenario - the coolant is being pushed back into the expansion tank and then out via the overflow.
Also noted was the continual clicking of the duovalves.
But the water in the expansion tank is not getting hot.
Could it be a) the thermostat
b) Head gasket...
Hi Folks,
Some while ago i heard a hissing noise from behind the centre console area - followed by the air con stopping cooling. No probs ; need re-gas.
The helpful folks at SAC in cov did a pressure test and told me it was leaking - so half charge with UV dye was administered, for tracing...
