Citric Acid Flushing
Actually, it doesn't damage alloys at all ~ that's why Mercedes decided to recommend it .
I've used it in horribly clogged Japanese tinfoil aluminum radiators and never a problem yet .
Hondas and Mazdas are famous for "uncleanable" aluminum radiators, not with citric acid mix they're not .
If this opens a leak anywhere, the leak was there already and waiting to do you dirt .
