2. I don't think so, I would imagine that if proper coolant was always used and changed on schedule, that would never be a problem. Maybe you can take it out and have a good radiator shop test it and give you an opinion? Get a used heater core from junkyard and have that tested before-hand, and then swap it in on The Big Day?
3. Center vent actuators (and presumably all the rest of the vacuum controlled actuators) do indeed go bad. I've got that condition right now. I think I found a Youtube tutorial / how-to that showed all the steps, was quite illuminating. Be warned!!! It is quite easy to break things, expensive things, if you don't know what you are doing. The written steps may not be enough to learn beforehand, so I highly recommend searching around on Youtube before or while you are doing the work. ------------- Max Charleston SC On Fri, Oct 23, 2015 at 4:22 PM, Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > Ok thanks.
