If it's a water pump you need, don't waste your time getting it from
the US. The price at Mercedes-Benz downtown is only CAN$120, plus a
$92 core charge that is refunded when you bring back the old pump. By
the time you get a US pump across the border and into CDN$, it's the
same amount. Anyway, if you need a pump I happen to have an extra one
you can buy.
And actually Rusty does ship to Canada. I just bought a whole pile of
stuff, and it all arrived just fine. The only killer part is the fact
that it comes by UPS, which means that unless you SPECIFY a customs
broker, you will get shafted with the UPS highway robbery customs
brokerage charges.

Thanks Mitch and Loren.
The short answer is that No, Rusty does not ship to Canada. I think it
was due to past problems. Therefore, I won't be buying anything from
him - I'll have to go to the dealer.
Mitch, what are you describing regarding the rear bearing? The rear
crank bearing or the rear pump bearing?

My first thought is that the rear bearing has been running in
antifreeze.

Rusty wants US76.29 for a Laso and US44.67 for a Geba. According
to the pics, both
have real cast turbine impellers, not stamped sheet metal fins.
Does he ship to
Canada?
