Have a look at these radiators for W210 listed on Pelican:

1996 Mercedes-Benz E300 Diesel Sedan - Radiators - Page 1

What's the difference between the two Behr radiators listed at the top? Why does the 210-500-12-03-M6 ($357) radiator cost more than $100 more than the 210-500-12-03-M326 ($230.75) unit? Grade difference? M-B star filed/ground off the less expensive one?

The only radiator out of the four choices that has an "application note" is the M326 Behr (through chassis # X 037740).

Black end tanks cost $127 more? How is there a more expensive option than MB labeled?

Sixto
83 300SD
98 E320 wagon

Hmm..

From the looks of it, they are different for sure because one weighs more than the other. Was there a VIN split on E300s?

Called Pelican. The Behr M326 radiator is made in China, hence the difference in cost and weight and the lack of "OEM Supplier" tag. The Behr M6 and Genuine MBZ should be the same, made in Germany radiator.

Does anyone have experience with the Nissens?

my w210 has a nissens in it for about 3 1/2 years now, filled with zerex g05 coolant after a good flushing, No issues at all.
