[W126 Coupe] Replacing your rad.

[Carl Hansen]

Worldpac has 3 in stock. 
2 Nissen at cad$347.66
1 Behr (OEM) at cad$ 369.74

I replaced my original rad with a Nissen rad, it's made in Denmark. 
Mine had the same problem that you have, (it appears to be very common on the original equipment). At first to tide me over, I removed the broken stub from the hose and inserted a piece of tight fitting metal pipe and glued it together, it held for quite a while when finally the top tank became separated from the core. The tabs around the tank for some reason could not withstand the pressure. These tabs as well as the stub and the core appears to be made from heavier material than the original. 
I am not sure if you can call Worldpac from US on their 800 number but here it is: 800-463-8749. Or perhaps there is a Worldpac outlet in your country whatever it is.
Your message does not indicate where in the world you reside but given your name you are from Germany or whether you are talking about Canadian, Australian, Hong Kong or US dollars. 

Hope this will help you otherwise contact me and let's see what we can come up with.
Best regards,

Carl Hansen,
Niagara Falls
Canada
