I just checked my records, the last time I changed coolant was in 2011...and that too, not a full flush. I did it only because my bypass hose blew on me and I had to change it. I remember that job fondly. Not! I don't recall flushing either. Heck I last did that in 2008 :-(

Man, I've been a bad Mercedes owner :-(

I feel the same way. I'm a teacher and by the time I get home, it's around 4PM. That gives me an hour to work on the car before dark. I've actually considered selling my 300SD as I just don't have the time to work on it. There isn't really anything major wrong with it, just little things you know.
