Re: CLK550/E550 hunt for Adam

Now look up OEM at Warwick. Mercedes Benz parts shop.com. OEM is almost always cheaper there than FCP. Local pickup or ship. Here, OEM is $145: https://www.mercedesbenzpartsshop.com/oem-parts/mercedes-benz-thermostat-2722000615?c=Zz1jb29saW5nLXN5c3RlbSZzPXdhdGVyLXB1bXAmbD0zJm49QXNzZW1ibGllcyBQYWdlJm...
