Hi All,
I have searched the forum, but not quite found the answer I'm after.
I recently(ish) bought a 2003 CLK55, low mileage (58k) and drives brilliantly. I had it inspected by a respected local specialist who picked up a few minor issues, but nothing major.
Now before I book it back in to get some electrical gremlins looked at I have a possible issue.
The car has a Valeo radiator, I'm well aware that 2003 is prime time bad for the glycol/ATF mixing, however upon inspection my car appears to have a Valeo radiator fitted from 2005 (see photo)
Is this radiator an upgraded one or should I get it looked at / replaced? I don't think I have any issues, although the box hums sometimes at mid acceleration in lower gears, no jerking/juddering though
Any advice appreciated
