aircon

I've decided to get my aircon running tip-top for our tropical Summer this year so tomoorw i'm gatting a re-gas at KwikFit (only £25 when booked online with an mot), i'll also be changing the cabin filter & using a can of Comma aircon cleaner. I've read some post about cleaning/un-blocking...

Just had my a/c (C43) tested as it was not working, and apparently the source of the problem is a leaking condensor. Quote seems to be £140 to supply, £90 to fit, and £75 to test and re-gas, plus VAT. I don't think this is an OEM part but should be a decent make. Have had a look at Euro Car...

Can anyone recommend a mobile aircon service company in Wiltshire (Ramsbury/ Hungerford/ Marlborough areas)? Climate on my C43 is now blowing very hot air!!:(

Can anyone help my aircon works ok in the front but blows hot in the back, yes i have the settings on cold E270 2003 any ideas?

My W209 with basic Aircon (no climate control) has suddenly started to drop out of the auto setting on the air con. Sometimes it goes for miles other times less than 10 minutes. This is not a practical problem as the manual settings work just fine, but I wonder if it is a harbinger of something...

I think I follow a list of people who have Aircon issues in this nice weather on my 2001 CLK 430, that have just become noticeable. So got a refill kit put some gas in it, reset the A/C computer, ran through the sensors settings and setting 7 was showing 3 bar last night this morning its...

Hi - a friend has a newer model to mine and has an issue with the aircon system. The issue started when he had the battery and alternator changed by an independent garage (no MB STAR etc). The aircon displays "AC OFF" in small letters on the Thermotronic control display. Furious pressing of...

hi i have just bought 92 reg 190 e /manual /petrol , can you tell me if aircon was fitted as standerd as i cannot find the aircon regards billy

Excuse my ignorance on this but this is puzzling me... Why does the temperature on my W210 seem to run slightly hotter when the AC is running? I have noticed that it sits just above 80 with the AC on but stays virtually bang on in the centre of 80 when its on "EC" mode... Same journey, same...

Apologies if this is in the wrong bit. I had the condenser replaced last week (1994 S320), bloke did what he was paid to do, replaced condensor, re-gassed and cleaned the system, great. Only problem is that the pump will only engage briefly when the car is first started, then it will...

Does anybody have any ideas about where to start checking out my air con. The compressor is not getting power, Thats all i know. The button lights up on the dash when i press it. But nothing else happens. If anybody knows where i can check then thanks . Also there is a long aluminium...

Hi all, I am facing an issue with the air coming out of the vents. The left vents are fine and blow cold air while the right vents are not. They start with blowing really hot air then cool down but not cold enough. Is there a duo valve in a w211? Where is it? flaps stuck? Please help. My car...

Hi All,according to the manual of my w208 clk320 cab the air con is on unless you press the ec switch & red light illuminates but have noticed yesterday/today(since weathers got warmer)that it definately is colder air blowing when the ec switch is pressed/illuminated than when it's not:dk:,any...

when i turn the temp controls down and the aircon starts blowing cold i can here what sounds like a slight air leak,if i turn the temp up it stops.i found a vacuum leak 2 weeks ago on the head light adjuster i have repaired it. could that have caused a leak on the aircon

Morning all, I put this in the electrical forum which I think might have been the wrong one but does anybody know if normal aircon can be upgraded to Auto climate control on a CLK W208 and if so what sort of job and what would be needed. Be gratefull for any help. Cheers, Lockking

I'm sure the aircon on my c220cd is faulty, however being a BMW man I've never come across the EC button, does this turn the AC off, it so I'm assuming the wheels control the temperature. Is there a way to test what component have failed or if a simple regassing is required?

I have a '95 C124 with aircon and it seems to have a mind of it's own !!! I follow the handbook basic setup instructions to use the Fast Demist (top button of 3) and sometimes it comes on, sometimes it flashes and then comes on or sometimes it goes off but most times it doesn't do anything and...

Just taken delivery of a 1998 C2.5 Elegance Estate. One known problem was the airconditioning didn't work. I'm now getting ready to have a look at the problem but just wanted to check to see if anyone had already suffered problems,and if so what the fixes were? At the moment if you press the...

How come we see in car ad's that the air con needs re-gassing. Isn't the system sealed like a pressurised heating ststem in a house? Meaning that if it needs re-gassing there must be a leak somewhere? Or am I totally wrong? or just confused?

My E320 aircon (manual controls) has been topped up (no leaks) but continues to switch on and off at random....it is OK when it works....any clues to resolve please
