clk 200K (Nov2000)

[geoffreyw]

I have recently purchased a 200K. I'm aware of radiator and manifold problems. How can I tell if I have a Valeco rad? Info on rad is BEHR 53788,
& A202 500 82 03. Thanks Geoff.

Then you are OK as the behr is fine.

Welcome to the forum Geoff

Do they have nanifold probs ???? as mine seems to have a blown exhaust near the minifold but the garage cant find it , if you put you hand on the exhaust pipe (with the chrome trim removed ) it just pushes your hand off some times it sound as though the mainfold is leekink and other times it quiet
Also if my manifold is cracked how much is a new one ????
Its a year 2002 CLK 200 kompressor convertible W208

Im worried now :-(

I thought that these manifold will weld up OK,, some do and I have seen that. It is a common fault

Common fault had mine welded and it's been fine so far after 30k new ones are expensive
