Ok so I have quite an oil leak, I’m near sure it’s the oil cooler seals? What all do I have to remove to get at the oil cooler? Looks like a lot? Any how toos? It’s 2005 c200 cdi

you also have illegal number plates but that's another subject , I don't think its an easy job and will require a coolant drain , could also be part of the rad pack but cant be certain , you are however in the right place for advice so stand by your beds

The new oil cooler is £26 lol just a pity if it’s gonna be a pain to replace might just sell car, the plates are the least of my worries lol

I’d rather do it myself but if too much hassle maybe just sell it on

... and that model is arguably one of the most elegant that MB have made.
I wish I hadn't sold mine.
Now if I could only get the convertible with diesel power ...

I've even been, unseriously, toying with the idea of getting a mint example and doing an electric conversion.
Now that would really be a silent wolf.
