aircon

Hi, is it possible to use a shorter S-Belt on a M113 V8 engine to bypass the air-con compressor ? Reason being, my ac compressor has the "rattle of death" (air con not blowing cold either). Genuinly at the moment I cant sanction a costly repair due to financial constraints, so would using a...

My aircon is leaking gas, the probe indicates it is somehwere up round the condensor but being new to mercs and not having the nous to work out how take off the front grille etc to get to condensor does the keen mechanics out there have some guidance of what I may expect when I start undoing...

Hello, just had my SLK looked at today by a good mate, turns out the Condensor is leaking, and he also recommended replacing the Drier. Could anyone recommend where the best place to get the parts would be ? Many thanks in advance, regards Damian. :) PS It is a 2001 SLK320 Auto.

Yesterday had some water leaking into the passenger footwell, and today the aircon and fan stopped altogether. Manual operation of the fan speed has no effect either Anyone got any ideas? I booked in for a service on Monday anyway, so will get them to sort it, but wondered if this is a...

ok - my ac blows nice and cold but my centre vents will ONLY blow cold! If i put the temp up the side vents blow nice and hot but the centre vents stay cold?? I took the duovalve out over the weekend to strip and clean but has not made any difference. Does anyone know why my centre vents...

Hi Guys I purchased a nice 2000 ML320 this weekend as a family runaround. its done 74K, got history and apart from a few cosmetic niggles is in really nice condition. BUT.... Took the car for a run today and turned on the AC. The light comes on but the air is not cool. The air get slightly...

compressor to condenser aircon pipe (part rubber part aluminium) w203 c220cdi 2001

Many thanks. Got the right condenser coil - finally. Hooorah. Though despite promises and assurance it came with bugger all. No surprise really nowadays. Just another 80 quid SIR. Anyway, part numbers needed are for the receiver drier, bolt underneath type. C180 komp w203046 se auto. Best to...

Is there a schematic somewhere to describe the Aircon system on a W124 Mine, on my 300CE Coupe is not great.......no cold air really, so I will need to do some work. What's the best Workshop manual for the W124..........presumably not Haynes? Also any good books around on the W124...... Cheers

Hi. Popped into Tony Purslow in Basingstoke yesterday and had my 10 year old C250TD regassed as the aircon was not working. After the work was completed, I got a very nice story about it all being done. Then a small frown appears on the service technician's face, and it's followed by a 'but...

I'm not due into work until this afternoon, but was out and about so decided to pop into Kwik-Fit to sort out the aircon on the Audi- I haven't been convinced of it's efficiency since buying the car. Took the car in this morning, no appointment, at 0915hrs. They advised me to leave it with...

I noticed that the aircon in my car was not particularly cold, so with warmer weather (hopefully) upon us soon I decided to get the gas recharged in my Air-con system. I took it to Kwik-fit who charged £45 for a drain, pressure test and refill of the system which took about an hour to do. I...

Anyone got any good, cheap recommendations for garages that can regas a 1995 C180? Anyone got any good/bad experiences with Kwikfits in the area? Cheers James

Hi Everyone, I recently noticed at night that only one half of the area where the air-con controls and fan controls is lighting up! How do i get pass the wood and change the bulb that is blown??? Thanks
