Hello All,
I was changing the oil in my '17 GLE 350 and noticed a slight coolant leak at the rear of the engine. It had dripped on the front drive shaft just ahead of the transfer case. When I checked the coolanrt reservoir it was a little low.
Anyone have any prior experence with this? Any suggestions on what the source might be?
Thanks and Happy New Year

There is an oil cooler mounted to the engine block on the left/driver's side. Have a look in that area.
Which model is it? Where in the back of the motor it's leaking driver side, passenger side, middle?
