Are there any brands that are better than > others? Any to avoid? I think Mercedes uses Behr radiators. I got a new one a few months ago. No problems. Regards, Peter They do use Behr. They are very expensive. > > I need a replacement radiator. Are there any brands that are better than > > others? Any to avoid?

Wow... the radiator prices for Mercedes has gone up quite a bit since last time I bought one. If you have plastic on your radiator, I find it is unreliable to repair it. If you have all brass unit, you can have it repaired, however, the same thing still applies... it may not last long. Nissens radiator is very high quality and I have bought and used three of them. no problem at all for years. On the BMW side, Behr radiator tends not to last for the broken hose neck problem. As for cheapest radiator, you may be able to find it on ebay. It is a 1985. No neck with plastic end caps. The ones that I was looking at on ebay don't tell the manufactures name. > Don't know what year you got so can't help with pricing.
