Check your VIN data card, it lists the engine code. Your VIN will map to the exact thermostat part number.
Q2: Do I need coding after replacement?
Coding is usually not required. Clear any fault codes and verify operating temperature with a scan tool.
Q3: Which coolant should I use?
Use Mercedes coolant meeting MB 325.x Specification, mix to the correct ratio for your climate.
Q4: What else should I replace?
Consider a full coolant service, inspect hoses and clamps, replace any brittle plastic fittings.
