I have a transmission fluid leak on the SD and it is the line that has the metal and rubber together that connects to the bottom of the oil cooler, went to M-B to get it and they say its no longer available.....does anyone know where I can get this from other than Mercedes, or is it time to sell??? Thanks!

Why not have one made at a hydraulic hose shop? Or you could try the "buy parts" link at the top of the page.

They probably just didn't want to deal with getting it for you....it is indeed still available.

Yep, through which the magical data liquid flows into all our computers. The speed that liquid moves is the truly astounding part. It can cover thousands of miles in >1/10th of a second!

Had a customer call once to have us check for data leaks. We told him that we found a hole in the back of the server and data was leaking out all over the floor

The liquid only cools the magic smoke that does the actual computing.

If you leak is in the rubber section, just cut it off and clamp a new section of hose to the metal ends.

Supposedly to protect from belt shrapnel if a belt decides to blow....then it won't cut the tranny hoses.
