I've never thought green antifreeze is a problem with an all iron motor.

Yeah...I don't think so! Anyone else notice the non-approved greeeeeeen coolant? Hmmmmmm, wonder how long that's been the case? At least seller's polite enough to issue this: "and do all your ''due diligence" BEFORE placing a bid"

Looks really nice, but buyer beware!

I see the shot of the windshield washer bottle....but I can't tell what is in the overflow.

EDIT: went back and blew up the pics....yeah, even with my red/green deficiency, it does look green in there!

Well if your motor is all iron guess you have no problem.

BUT, most diesel benzes I've seen, as well as a large number of forum members' benzes, have alloy components that green coolant has the propensity to systematically destroy. Something to think about when preparing to pay that many thousands for a auto.
