I just changed the anti freeze in my 2001 E430 with 90K miles. The MB coolant has such a faint pink color to it, it is hard to see in the expansion tank where the level is. Does any one really think that the engine/gaskets will be damaged if the system is completely is flushed out of MB coolant, and latest version of Prestone coolant is used? I have a very tough time believing that every car maker out there must have their own coolant. The cost difference is like $12 a gallon. The money is not the issue, I don't care for the MB's clear color. Joe

I just inherited my mother's '92 300E. A really nice--and very gently used--car with only 68,000 miles. I've always been a Mercedes fan-- especially back when these cars were built to a standard, rather than to a price. But can anyone offer suggestions for upgrading the radio and the headlights for a pre-facelifted W124? (The headlights are dim, and the radio has poor sound, lousy ergonomics, and no CD player). I would appreciate any recommendations for aftermarket products and/or potential replacement pitfalls. PS: Does anyone read this forum? Seriously, there are still tens of thousands of these cars on the road.... |

| The crappy plastic cupholder assembly in my center console is not working on my 2003 E320. I was able to remove it but hate to pay the outrageous cost that the dealer charges for a new one. Are there any sellers of Mercedes parts for this kind of item? The MB parts places I found on the net don't carry this kind of item. Any ideas would be appreciated. | |
