There appears to be a type of clear-coat finish on the valve cover on my '95 C280. However, the coating has turned to a brownish color in some areas. What could have caused this?

Arjay, Pretty much the effects of heat. I've seen plenty of covers do this--even on newer cars. ------------------ Rgds, Aaron Greenberg MB technician Precision Motorcars, Cincinnati, Ohio '67 250SE Cabriolet '77 450SL '80 300SD '85 380SE '89 420SEL '93 300E 2.8 '74 Jensen Interceptor Mk.III '81 DeLorean DMC12 '85 BMW 745i Turbo

This is the coating that they use to ship. It is called cosmoline.(sp?)/
You can use a strong wheel cleaner to get it off. ------------------ Benzmac: Donnie Drummonds 1992 500E (very soon I hope  1981 280GE SWB ASE CERTIFIED MASTER AUTO TECHNICIAN SERVICE MANAGER FOR 14 BAY FACILITY MERCEDES SPECIALIST 8 YRS PARTNER IN MERCEDESSHOP.COM
