aircon

Popped into Kwik-Fit today to ask whether their offer stating no charge if Temperature at vent does not reduce by at least 10% after re-gas. The guy was was a little hesitant then went on to say that their thermometer was broken! I said , no problem, we can monitor the evaporator temperature on...

Hi. Along with all the other weird electrical faults in this car the heater fan in the clk 230k seems to have a mind of it's own. Sometimes it works OK, other times you have to put it on max and wait for it to decide to work. Seems quite noisy at times as well, like it's trying to blow out of...

Chaps, The aircon is not blowing cold in my W203 and it looks liked it was regassed last year with UV 'leak' Dye included. Are there any mobile guys in Kent you can recommend or am I better of at an Indy garage with STAR so I can have any fault codes read? Cheers! Phil

Hi, This has been going on for more than a year now. A hiss followed by crackling occurs for a couple of seconds when the compressor is first switched on. I don’t mean when the compressor continues to run between cycles of low to high displacement. I mean when the evaporator temp drops...

Good morning all. The car is a '98 E55 AMG. The vendor told me that he had the air-conditioning topped-up to 1000 psi prior to sale because the pressure had dropped to 600 psi, but I doubt (to put it mildly...) those values and it may well just have been dealer bulls**t anyway. I've checked...

Hi learned collegues a question , have i got aircon in my e320 1999 avante garde? the reason i ask is that i cant see any switch saying a/c on dashboard, i thought they had aircon as standard ?

Ok my snap-on diag gives B1231 code which relates to ECT sensor (B11/4). Can anyone tell me the location of that sensor, it is om606 engine E300 Td 1998 model. Cheers George..

Last tuesday I took my car in to have the Air-con regassed with the intention of having plenty of dye added so that I stand a chance of finding out where it is loosing the gas (It has taken about 7 weeks to leak out in the past). Prior to taking it in I replaced the receiver / dryer myself, I...

Hi Can any one help, my w221 s320 , the heater blower has set it's self on about number 3 when you put it on full noting happens , then occasionally it starts working normally then goes back to setting 3.

Hi all, The heater/airco control unit on my 2007 SL500 stopped working. The air does not heat and the vent direction controls do not work (air comes out of the footwell vents no matter direction is chosen). MB eventually have diagnosed the problem as a faulty connector of the wiring loom that...

Urgently require an air recirculation switch for a 190E. Part number A1268202110. Main dealer says no longer available and A1268205110 is the replacement. Ordered one (at £80.50 plus vat :eek:) only to find that it is incompatible (3 pins instead of 4). Ordered from two breakers only to...

I am changing the heater matrix on my friends 1992 mercedes benz 300CE and noticed the evaporator also needs changing. The old R12 gas is now illegal as far as im aware so If i change the evaporator will i be able to use the modern type of aircon gas or will i need to change other parts of the...

Hello i got this problem with my c200 w202 when the car is running the aircon fans in the front of the car is running all the time also the engine temperature is not showing on the gauge this started rescently after the car has been inside a garage for 2-3weeks does anyone know where to...

My air con is not working and was told that the condenser has a hole, so allowing gas to excape (was told this last time it was in at indie for something else) - haven't changed until now as not been necessary - but am off to France on a long drive and would prefer to stay cool on the journey...

Hi guys, new to the forum and love my c220 already! Only problem I'm having is a not working Aircon system, The compressor turns constantly when the engine is running, the led inside the 'Aircon off' switch works as it should but I can't hear the compressor clicking when the switch is...

It’s taken me some time to narrow down, but this highly unlikely scenario has recently started on my 1997 SL320 with standard non-Bose hi-fi system. By setting the Climate control unit to diagnostic mode I can see the temperature of the refrigerant at the aircon evaporator varying between...

I don't think my aircon is working properly. It never really gets cold. Cool maybe, cold never. It's really needed, my car is dark with black leather seats, yesterday it was 46 when I got into the car. I had to get back out and let air blow through for a while. I have tried four local places...

This particular case refers to an aircon compressor fitted to a 2008 VW B6 Passat 1.9 turbo diesel belonging to mate of mine. I have a feeling similar units may also be found on some MB models also. Its a Delphi DH5 part no 5NO820803A and according to his local garage its toast! Now I am...

Hi Folks, Just as the weather picks up the aircon packs up.! sort of. It still gets cold on the passenger side but not on the drivers side. Had this before in my Range Rover and they have a thing called blend motors each side. Is it the same with the CLK's and likely to be the culprit...
