So this past summer i already got around replacing the water pump, thermostat, electrical fan, tensioner, and serpentine. I figure since i live in the cold NYC i replace the rest of the cooling components of my car. I wanted to go a head and replace my radiator. I was told by my local Mercedes parts dealer that there were two radiators in my car. There is the giant one that sits behind the fan, and apparently there is a small radiator as well making it two in total for the car. Can someone tell me if that small radiator would require opening up the A/C system? Does anyone know where exactly in the car that small radiator is located? I'm trying to see if i'm going to be able to do this myself, because i can't work on anything A/C related. My dealer quoted me $448 after tax and a 10% discount for both radiators (WDBRF92H17F935465) and i'm leaning towards it.
I guess my confusion is going towards the idea that the car has two different radiators. If the representative the Mercedes part store was right, i basically have one of each of these in my car?
