Sergio,

The part # you provided, not for that black piece, it's the air cooler (see picture below)

Hello!
The parnumber you see on the pic is for the air cooler. I can buy it on Mercedes.
To install the aircooler in the diferential of the C32 I need an adapter that is the black piece you can see on the picture, this is what I am looking for!

Ahh, i see,

Honestly, it's little bit hard to find that adapter,

you can fabricate one easily, like this:-

I bought the other kit from Frank when he ordered his. I never got a chance to install it and it's still new in the box. That's my photo of the part you posted. Let me know if you're still interested.
​​​​​​
I have a few other parts for sale. Probably going to part out my C32. Stock C55 exhaust, 18" AMG wheels, bixenons, custom steering wheel, custom shift knob, equal length headers, carbon fiber front lip, and a few other things I've probably forgotten about. I'll probably start a part out thread with pics.

Hello, That is very nice.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your reply.
Yes, I am interested on the part.
Can you send me an email to sobodah@yahoo.com so we can make the deal.
Will wait for the pics on the other parts.

Thank you,

You will probably be better off without it unless you want serious performance i.e drag-race...
But actually if you want to do the mod, its better if you get an Quaife LSD ( A differential from either; E-55 AMG, C-55 AMG CLS-55 AMG). Not done yet, you will need to have a new drive shaft with four prawns (C32 AMG comes with three), and you will have to have your TCU re-program to reflect the new gear ratio.
