Hello,

The nipple for the overflow tank on my radiator rotted off. After doing some research I found out I need to change the entire radiator. I ordered the radiator and I am thinking of taking on the job myself. I have looked everywhere for videos and I cannot seem to find any. I am pretty handy with a wrench, but I am thinking I might be biting off more than I can chew. Any thoughts?

Hello , I have been a Mercedes technician for sixteen years. the radiator is a easy job compared to some of the other stuff that goes wrong on the CLS. lol, you will not need a video I can add the work instructions from the Mercedes database for you . If you add your VIN number for me I will get you the instructions . And do not forget donations are greatly appreciated if you find my information helpful . Lou P.
