[W126 Coupe] Unusal radiator problem - '87 560SEC

[rcl]

Both are new and both are the correct parts - and they seem to be working....Rob

Is it possible that the radiator be faulty somehow causing it to swell under heat and pressure thereby reducing the water level???

  When was the last time the radiator cap was changed?  How about the thermostat?

    Help - Had a new genuine radiator installed in my '87 560SEC (Euro) . Problem is that when it gets hot, the water level drops in the overflow tank and the light comes on. When it cools down, the water level rises and the the level is correct again - any ideas? - Rob
