mbtech208, where are the coolant drains located on the engine block of an E430.

 

The engine block drain is located on the right side of the engine block, approximately in the middle of the block. If my memory serves correctly, it's above the motor mount, and to the rear. It's easiest to get to from under the car. You can't miss it, it's the only thing on the block around that area.

 

Thanks, mbtech208! You are a real asset to us, especially since M/B has not yet produced manuals or CDs for any of the cars since the W202 C-Class. Once again, thanks!

 

You're very welcome, Vince.
