Coolant loss??
Hey all, new here, recent new owner of a 2012 CLS63 with the P/P. On the highway yesterday, stepped on it a bit, noticed immediately a cloud behind me, followed by the “check coolant level” error message. Got myself pulled over and had a look, and from what I can guess, something let go around the drivers side firewall area in the coolant system. Hoping it’s nothing major :s anyone have a similar issue, or any idea what the culprit could be?

Welcome to the forums. Sounds like an OBD scan is needed 
Do you have an OBD scanner? Or perhaps a nearby shop that could scan you and see what the car stored?

Yes, cross 'em! Are you with ELW or any sort of financial buffer?

Hmmm, I see. Any good reliable independent shops in VC BC? I looked briefly but only saw dealers.........
Good luck at the dealer with it. Hope you can find an alternative unless you're happy with the service they provide.
I love the indy shop I go to........located in my sig lol

Turns out the heater control Valve failed. $160 part. 8-10hrs labor!! 🤦🏼*♂️ Def won’t be a dealer job seeing as they can’t even get the part for another 3 weeks
