Engine Coolant Replacement

Model: Mercedes Classe C W202 - Years 1993-2000
Part: Antifreeze coolant

Regularly replacing the coolant prevents buildup in the radiator. Position a container under the radiator to collect the old coolant, then locate the drain plug under the radiator and remove it to let the fluid out. Connect a hose typically used for watering the garden and circulate water to completely clean the system. Refill with the recommended coolant specified by the manufacturer. Start the engine, open the air bleed valve until fluid comes out to eliminate any air bubbles, and check for leaks.
