C250 thermostat replacement
Does anyone know how to get to the coolant thermostat on a C250?
From what I can tell it requires removing the air intake tube, problem is I can't figure out how to detach the end which feeds into the turbo.
Any help is much appreciated, only 24,000 miles and a bad thermostat has me frustrated enough!

You don't need to remove the turbo intake tube. Disconnect it at the air filter end, and you should have enough wriggle room to get the access you need.
That's how I did it anyway...
