Im stuck folks. My CLS55 (M113K engine) is losing coolant but absolutely no idea where from. Its been to MSL for a pressure test. This confirmed a leak - they went all over it and they could not find the source of the leak. Coolant was drained and oil drained and both checked to see if there was any signs of oil/coolant mixing. No evidence of this, both oil and coolant were clean so head gasket was ruled out.
Ran it on MSL's dyno - pulled 545bhp/647lb/tq. Acid says engine is strong and healthy. Again, head gasket ruled out.
Its also been to my Mercedes indie specialist, they also could not find the leak.
Its now reached the point where im having to top up around a coke can full every 100 miles.
It has had a new ic pump, so it should not be that.
Engine is not overheating, temp always at 80c
This is really pissing me off!!
What shall I do?? Take the whole cooling system apart and micro inspect every hose, component, radiator, etc? Thats gonna cost a bit.
Shall I just live with it?
Or shall I just bung some rad weld in it?
Someone pls help!!!
