Yup, I've got one then. Here's another question for you. I am taking the family for a couple of hour's drive in my 300CD on Thursday - going to my sister-in-law's for Thanksgiving dinner. Somehow I don't think I can get one of these repair kits and get it installed before then. Can the whole thing be temporarily bypassed to get some heat for the drive? Maybe with a plastic elbow and a couple of hose clamps for example?
