Oil in coolant expansion tank
Hi all, I have a couple of questions on my 2002 ML 270
- Any idea where to get replacement radiator hoses at reasonable costs.
- Any ideas on where is the oil in my coolant tank coming from its dark syrup coloured. The rad is for the coolant and there is a pipe from the power steering and there is also a pipe to the thermostat housing from an oil cooler. I think its power steering fluid ? Engine does not get to 60 deg.
- I have a new thermostat housing and expansion tank from Eurocar parts £57 for the 2 parts inc VAT but need rad hoses. I plan to change the Rad which i got on ebay for £23.
- I might be barking up the wrong tree so if anyone has had similar problems please let me know what the cure is!!
- I get a couple of warning lights on the dash after a 10 mins BAS ESP and ETS but may be a coincidence. they go off once engine cooled again.
