Hi all, i am new to this forum and the joys of Mercedes motoring, i have recently bought a 1995 c200 auto and the car is really nice. Though today i noticed a water leak from under the car and thought radiator burst? so i removed the fill cap from the top of the radiator and there was a layer of oil sitting on top of the water? i have drained the system, and flushed through the best i can and refilled. The temp is fine and i havent seen any more leaking fluid, i pulled dipstick out and oil level is good, and checked under oil filler cap and there is no sign of water in with oil on both and car has no loss of power or blowing white smoke out back. I am hoping that maybe the previous owner put a bit of oil in rad by mistake before he sold it but maybe that is more wishfull thinking. Also, i noticed that the plug to the coolant level sensor on top of rad was not connected, so i plugged back in and orange warning light came on, could this be faulty sensor? any help would be most appreciated, thanks in advance.
