    Neither of my C43's have the transmission cooler attached to the radiator. Just FYI (one is a 98 the other a 99).

    My 1994 C280 and 1994 E320 both had the attached transmission cooler.

    Zayed,
    Thanks, I may run a spacer too just in case the tips are too much heat for the bumper!

    Sulaco,
    Thanks for the info, I think I will keep the C43 cooler the way it is and plug up the holes on the CLK55 radiator, the C43 radiator I have has finer fins but they have been damaged by another owner whilst removing the viscous at some stage so would be nice to change it out.

    if you end up with a spare C43 radiator that doesn't leak, I'm in need of one...
