Coolant change A class cdi 160 problems.

[bigtee]

Took bottom hose off radiator nothing came out?, Took top hose off and approx a pint or more came out all this with expansion tank cap off.

So is there a drain plug on the radiator or the block somewhere?

Please don't say i need a fangle dangle tool only merc supply to drain the coolant.!!

Hi
Where did it come out from ?

It came out of the top hose and a little out of the radiator as it was jacked up at the front on axle stands i dropped it to the floor to try and level it for more to drain but it didn't.

When i bought the antifreeze i was told the capacity is 6ltrs so got 3ltrs of antifreeze for a 50/50 mix.

Is this a W168? If so see: Bert Rowe's-Mercedes-Benz 'A'-class information. Coolant refill and drain system
