WTB: W124 300D radiator (OM602)
Sigh... snapped the neck of the radiator while flushing the coolant for the winter. It never ends! Anyway, I need a radiator now. Ideally, someone has a new Nissen or Behr that they never got around to installing. In the real world, though, I'd settle for a KNOW GOOD used one (i.e. recently replaced and run with the proper coolant just before the car got parted out, maybe?). Let me know what you've got, and whether it happens to have a reinfoced neck. Many thanks, friends!

Hey Jim -- thanks for the reply. I have temp-fixed it with epoxy and copper pipe, but I have been meaning to replace the radiator anyway, as I think this just may be the original to the car. I'd hate for this repair to fail on me out on the road!

I just got an extra used one today with our "new" 1995 E320 gasser that was to be a parts car (its too good for that, will investigate the transmission issues). PO said he had a high temp issue, replaced radiator with a new one, made no difference. I assume it functions OK because of that but don't know if it has a reinforced neck, can look tomorrow. If you want it, $55 delivered to your door in the 48USA. You would need to do homework to see if it is correct for your application, or I could check (also tomorrow).

Thanks, hanno. I think the gassers use a different radiator, unfortunately. If I find otherwise, I'll drop you a line; thanks again for the kind offer!

Good morning! I checked the site I use for parts interchange, they are indeed different. Anyone need a used but good gasser radiator?
