Need a bit of help troubleshooting this thing. I have a 2001 E430 (now my wifes car). She was rear ended a few days ago and not driven until I can replace the back cracked light lens. Anyway, when I reparked the car yesteday I noticed a small amount of "fluid" under the front of the car. I looked closer and found that a good bit of this "fluid" has puddled just infront of the engine right under all the fan belts and whatnot. Puddled more on the window washing fluid reservoir side. Could this be a power steering o ring blowout? Any help would be great. And sorry for the vague description. I have never worked on these cars, only my 996 911 and things are much different between the two Thanks in advance!
400 is nothing for bigger part on MB.
I spend more for cigarette pack -sized pedal positioning sensor.
Household dimmer potentiometers with all the electronics cost $5
somebody got marked up.OE radiator from radiator.com 200 bucks.OEM from germanstar.net about $259,a diy job for sure and definitely not a 400 buck labor plus the extra profit on the radiator job.
I guess ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
Don't let him replace the mass air sensor for you he might charge you 500 bucks for a 10 minute r/r and a 160 buck part.
did he check why the radiator failed?If he did not find the cause the problem may repeat.
Thanks in advance!
800 bucks to replace by indy mechanic. 400 dollar part.
