ML270CDi Radiator

[MarkF]

My radiator on the Ml had had a slight weep for some months now, nothing serious but as with all things it will need attention soon.
My question is how easy is this to do as a DIY job, the Ml has other smaller radiators attached and I was thinking of building a jig to support these whilst removing the main radiator, is it a simple job or one best left to an indi.

it depends on how competant you are really.

Its not a difficult job.

Hi,

I built this from scratch http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/railwayman7/

So what are the pit falls of the job, do I need any special tools? is it simply drain, unbolt and fit a new one or is this being to simple?

Any help much appriciated.

Regards

Mark

Not sure about on the ML but normally the gearbox cooler pipes connect to the rad as well, so will need dealing with as well as the water in the rad.
