I would not want to change one again on a w220. I agree it was super tight to get in and out. Those hoses are hard to clip on to the radiator.

Hey Hegar, im moving to dallas at the end of the month. The radiator was a easy except for the hoses. reconnecting them took the same time as removing and reinstalling everything else, lol...

Glad it worked out for you. Hopefully I won't have to tackle that job anytime soon.

Do you guys know what the cooler hose at the bottom drivers side of the radiator connects to and part #?

Ive yet to remove the underbody cover to check and see where it goes and the dealer doesnt know what hose im talking about..

Back in my tuned turbo car days, when installing new silicone hoses, we used hairspray to make it slide easier.

Gonna try this with these rubber hoses and hope all stays well
