Need help with Radiator replacement
Hey guys,
Trying to replace the radiator on my 2008 S-Class. The instructions (which were in another thread here from a while ago) say to evacuate the AC condenser and remove the lines and the ac condenser itself while replacing the radiator. I am trying to avoid doing this but still replace the radiator.
However, after I have removed all the hoses, fan shroud, bottom crossmember and top plate and everything in the way, if I pull on the radiator it stays stuck to the AC condenser. I'm not sure how to get it off. If anyone has experience replacing MB radiators that are attached to the AC condenser somehow and could give me some tips on how to get it off so I can finish replacing my radiator I'd appreciate it.
