Hey guys, I've had my C180 for about 2 months now and the other night i noticed my radiator fan was still on after an hour of being in the gym, when i got home it was still running an hour and a half after i parked up so i disconnected the plug over night to the fan, when i plugged it in the...

I have a column rad. running vertically in front & on the left side of the main rad. In & out pipes from the right hand side. The car is not fitted for towing. Can anyone identify what this rad is for. ATF cooler? (fingers x) aircon or engine.

I own a 2003 W209 which might be potentially infected with the glycol issue. I have read on the forum ways how to identify your radiator based on the crimpring method of the coolant hoses etc. Lots of people have trouble Identifyinf their rad brand, so this weekend I was able to get a good...

My E320 cdi had it's faulty Rad replaced under warranty along with oil cooler two years ago with all fluids, gearbox fluids etc at a cost of 5k. Thing is they replaced it with another Valeo unit. Should I be worried or have the since improved the orginal design?

Auto tranny. Anyone got one? PM the SP if you do please. Ta!

Hi folks, I was hoping someone has an better option than to take the rad out. Basically I just need to turn the engine over slowly to bring into view drain plugh on torque converter. With the plastic fan cowl loose I can get in to remove the viscous fan or get a socket on the crank -...

I have read lots of stuff on this that i found on here from you guys in recent times but i cant seem to find out if it is an issue i should be concerned about on a 2005 car?? Was it only pre facelift cars or should i be checking something out?? cheers...:thumb:

Hi all, Newbie here. I have just bought a lovely CLK 270CDI. It has teh valeo rad and is registered in march 2004. Car has covered 71000 miles with full MB history. Now, after reading forums I am a little concerned as to whether my rad will fail and cause transmission fluid to be...

I need the short hose from water pump to stat housing for my C220, where from other than stealer ? :wallbash:

Looking for a decent one fairly urgently. I'm told a W124 300D rad is the same or at least will fit. TIA.

Having already removed the viscous fan from my car and knowing that most cars are overcooled I decided to try adding a radiator blind, not to make the engine warm up more but to act as an aerodynamic dam. I read that approximately 30% of aerodynamic drag is caused by air getting trapped in the...
