..You sincerely have just saved my butt ! I recently ran into the same problem you described on my '03 E320. Honestly this is one of the best DIY films which gave me specifics, great footage, no wasted commentary, nice work! This saved me some real money. Thank you.
wow am glad I saw this thanks. The worst part I just fixed my car last weak due to leaks and over heating. I was told I needed converter wow I paid, picked my car few days later coolant light showed up after putting some and its still on. Watching this now am thinking probably I did not need converter and that guy did not even check the tube I just watched. So angry lol wish you can fix my car haha thanks for sharing.
My 2013 Bluetec ML350 shows add coolant light but doesn't appear to have a visible leak or leave a stain. This Vid has to be the most helpful I've seen after over 3 hours of searches and videos. A game changer indeed. Thanks is an understatement..But THANKS..
Dear Mr Landon, Dear Kent, Good day. I am from Kurdistan, and own a Mercedes Benz s class 350, 2012. It is driven 16 miles, only. I have a problem with it and here nobody can diagnose correctly. When I drive it for a while and pull over it produces a loud noise. The location of the noise is in the front driver’s side. It is something like a repeating (chk chk chk). The compressor seems to be OK because the AC (cold air) is fine. There is also a little leak on the passenger’s side engine, close to the pulleys. I recorded this with my phone. I put my phone under the engine and I found this shown in the picture.
These hoses have an o ring on the ends of them.Sometimes they dry out and crack and you can replace them for about $5 at pelican parts .lts best to grease the O rings with pure silicone grease, even on a brand new hose .lt will keep them from cracking and going bad .I thought I had a bad hose because it was dripping at the connection ,but it was just the o ring .
I relate to you in a lot of ways from how you mention things like look for a crack in the hose housing that you connect the upper radiator hose to... Funny thing is I just changed my radiator myself and that was the issue.
What do you need to use for the small hose under it? Seems like it just needs to be pushed in all the way and tbh I don’t wanna remove all that just to push it up a bit more but I can’t tell if it’s a screw or bolt or just needs vice grips
My MCS on my 2008 GL450 and CLK 350, both 2008, the Navegation stop working. It tells me that it cant read the navegation dvd. Everything else from the MSC works, I wonder if the lense is dirty,? but doesent take a cleaning lense dvd. Any ideas?
It's interesting seeing how Benz engines look different.. I have a w220 02 s55 amg and it's interesting seeing your intake manifold has those little "screen filters" inside of it and I started wondering if mine had that too or some moron who worked on my car removed it but I'm about 90% sure it's simply an upgrade from my year (2002)
Hello, I have slow drip of coolant coming from the driver side front control arm. Any thoughts as to what it might be? I see nothing from the top and side by the firewall. I’m going to take the bottom covers off and look up underneath above the control arm & around? Thx
You have any idea why I have coolant dripping underneath directly below both front seats. Rear turbo coolant lines. Why both go at the same time. 2016 S550 with 44K mikes always garaged & well cared for just got it back from the shop to fix the heater Colman line leak & noth this first one side one day then both sides leaking bad 2 days later. wtf? Thank you for any ideas or help
I have this problem on my gl450 2009 the cluster show add coolant And yes it need coolant but did not overheating so I may need to check firme that pinhole Thanks a lot I will do it this weekend
They did not fixed it. Said Radiator Have hole in it. Must pay again. Don't agree. They said coolant cap. On Second return. But this time they are Telling me It's. The Radiator. I say They Didn't fixed At first. Or second time. Don't think I should pay.
Keith, steam was blowing from the drivers side firewall on my ml550 and I can see water leaking down the drivers side firewall behind the heat shield. Any suggestion of were the leak might be coming from.
How are you Mercedes-Benz C-Class 2001 with its suction key The switch is running well but Sometimes starter does not work Sometimes it works What are the reasons?
Please i need a video on how to replace the hose from the coolant container that goes to the water pump in my ml350, model 2003, it started leaking yesterday, and don't know how to fix it..!
I can do one for the ml350 2006 which is similar. Please note that coolant does not flow directly from the reservoir to your water pump. It goes from the reservoir to the radiator and from there throughout the system.
I tried to remove the radiator drain plug but it broke. I drilled it and removed it. When I replaced it with a new drain plug, water was leaking from the litlle black hose next to the red drain plug, I assume I damaged the threads. What can I do to fix the problem?
in my case it showed the heating temperature message in-sighting to add coolant i stopped went to add the coolant i found out that the pipe you are cutting had not been clipped at the radiator actually it was not connected to the radiator we fixed that but it kept on showing the heating temperature you can drive for less than 300 metres then message pops up again you stop the car turn off the engine after 5 to 10 minutes you start the engine the temperature will be back to normal and the fan keeps on running the moment you start the car when you cut the engine the keeps on running to about 2 or 3 minutes then it stops what can i do i need your help E280
Thanks for this video as well as your other helpful videos. I have An 08' ML 350 and A 05' C230 Kompressor... My C230 has a coolant leak but not sure how to find it? Also how do I flush system once I find & repair the leak? Thanks much!
Thanks for the positive feedback. To flush you fill the colant reservoir to the max line. Then with the hood open and the coolant reservoir still off. Start the engine and let it warm up. It should burp. Then cover the radiator reservoir. Close the hood and take it for a drive. Let the engine cool down for 4 hours. And repeat. This can be dangerous so wear eye protection and allow the engine to properly cool down between intervals.
@@iRepairAutos Much Thanks for your advice. Just curious do you use a pressure tester to find coolant leak or other means? Been difficult to find on my C230.
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost my password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Rocky Orion Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Hey my car says stop engine off low coolant so I replaced the resovoir new in still says red on my dash found out it was the temperature sensor went bad which is 25$
iRepair Autos I installed mine after I watched your. I have the GL 320 CDI and after installing the cat an, it traps lots of fluid that would have been going into the turbo. Seems like it’s helping...... great videos, keep it up.
That’s what I use. My coolant sign pops up every 4-6 months however. No obvious signs of leak and I think even merc said they checked but found no leak! Is this normal ????
@@n1k32h No, it's not! You have two options (probably more)... Pressure builds-up only when the engine is hot and it can so be that it needs a certain pressure to open-up a tiny hole, usually that will be a tired crimping where the rubber is pressed by the joint. It might as well be a hair-like crack, but it's unusual; those things happen only to imbeciles who pour cold water into a hot engine, after losing coolant due to bad hoses... One option is to create pressure and do a read-out, but this involves tools or service fees. The second option is to get a bottle of Liqui Moly 20132, which is the ONLY product which will not harm your Mercedes. It's made in Germany and it's used as prevention in high-end German vehicles. I recommend you watch the factory video on the product. It sells between $5 and $16 depending on the seller and it's available on Amazon. Good luck! Get back with results!
Im having that problem where i may see a little coolant in the garage but no major leaking so im trying to see how i can detect the leak? run the car and see if it comes out? also when i start up my 2009 C 300 my fan is loud for 2-3 minutes then it cuts off is that normal?
