Will a 230 gasser radiator fit a 240D? I don't believe it's a 230E. I know a 617 radiator won't work? |

Any W123 radiator will fit. You would only have to add the expansion tank for the 617a rad to work.

hey, thanks for finally replying.
I just noticed a little hole in my radiator wherever a little bit of coolant was squirting out! The needle didn't get too high, so all is well.
Damn I love a cast block AND head. So durable. |

Except in the case of auto verses manual transmission models, because of the trans oil cooler built into the lower radiator tank. I guess you could use one from an automatic car in a manual car, but not the other way around. |
