So my latest problem from my High Quality S Klass is that the little yellow radiator fluid lite came on Sunday just after leaving the trailer under the bridge. Started watching temp guage and it started going up so I did a U turn in the middle of the street and took it back to the trailer pad. After the steam went away and it cooled down I looked in behind the engine and in front of the fire wall where some fluid had been spurting out and splashing on the little plastic covers hiding the hamsters in their wheels or what ever they hide. There was this broken thingy. Turns out it is a plastic T that is NOT made of metal. Guess that way it can break easier and cause engine melt down which increases driver satisfaction or some such emotion. Now I sit here and contemplate putting 100K + into a new version of this that has an automatic driver feature and I just sort of get all choked up! That ole Jayde Powers gal whut duz them surveys iz sure rite on the mark!
Question - think I should have them replace all the hoses and the H2O pump while they have it there? Pump probably did run on air for a block or two.
