My understanding is that it is controlled by the ECU and will vent compressed air back in through the airbox to reduce excess pressure in the intake system. If the supercharger is running and more intake pressure is required it will close the butterfly valve accordingly.

A few shots of our car which resides with us in the Algarve.

Looks like the new MB policy is being fully implemented then ;)

They have been known to fail due to age/high mileage, but to date not needed to change on on my car.

Based on the above information my girlfriend must have had the Linguatronic option fitted when new and working 100% Now she is my wife and I believe the option has since disappeared. The voice control option has most definitely failed!

Also (for the UK) - From a UK Mini Cooper parts website at: http://www.minimaniauk.co.uk/web/Item/NME7250/InvDetail.cfm Mini?? OK.... but hey! an Eaton M45 Supercharger oil requirement is the same no matter what it is fitted to. best regards James Mc

I'm trying to locate the part number for this item for my CLK230K. Been looking at the .ru site but the part seems a little elusive, to my eyes at least :( Any pointers, or even the correct part number (which I assume would most likely be common between the SLK230K and the CLK230K) would be...

Hi Malcom ... My W208 (Cab) has a duff battery. I knew it was on the way out last time I was home (I work away). Meantime the battery has lost all it's charge. I have a new battery to install but the boot is locked and the manual lock is seized. No problem getting into the car (using the...

Good result! I'm pleased that it's sorted. I know the previous owner of my car was conned into a new roof pump unit and a new MB battery to try and fix a roof fault that I later tracked down when it failed (not long after I took ownership) with the same symptoms as explained to me before I...

Hi Jobela Where are you in Portugal? I will be carrying out my own AT oil change soon.

As a UK member I've reported the seller on eBay. Not that just me reporting it would do the trick, but if others do the same they may take action.

Yeah.. where is that picture? I want to complain also, but need to see the picture first! ;)

br1anstorm Did you get this sorted? My car has developed the same problem. One day it was OK the next time of use (about 24hrs later).... air-con compressor clutch not engaging. It's quite useful here in Portugal too! :) This week I'll try and get the car to a vehicle air-con specialist...
