ML550 Radiator Springs a Leak

Discovered a nice thread-sized stream of coolant spraying out of the plastic inlet pipe of my radiator yesterday. Anyone ever R&R the radiator on their ML550? Easy DIY or best done by a shop or dealer? If I take it in, what sort of cost am I looking at? Looks like a replacement radiator runs about $275 or so. What should labor cost?

You have to make that decision.

Thanks for posting that. Looks a little more involved than I have presently have time or tools for. I'll let the dealership pros handle this one (and undoubtedly pay for accordingly). Oh well, sometimes you have to just bite the bullet and move on.
