heating

Hi all.. It's been a while but I finally changed my C43 to a C32 about 1 1/2 ago. The 32 is great, fast and just a pure joy to drive. I have 2 problems. One is pretty standard for the W203 chassis and it's the loud ticking noise behind the dashboard. Does anyone know who can fix this...

Started out for Norfolk on Thursday got 15 miles and was getting rather cold as the heating had stopped working. Eventaully decided to turn it off, then on again and it started working again. Now it seems to be working a bit funny(Gets too hot and will only readjust when the temp is changed)...

Just thinking about another mod and was wondering how can I tell if the leather seats are suitable for this?

I have E220 cdi, the aircon temperature is ok, but it does not cool quickly, the fan speed is not optimum, the pollen filter was changed a year ago. Same problem with heating.

Hi guys, My A/C isn't very cold i am guessing that is because it needs to be re-gasses. No worries there but my heating only works on one side? My passenger side shoots out lovely warm air while my driver side just shoots out air, just the same temp as is out side? Thanks Brad :)

Hi I'm a lot puzzled about the way my ventilation system is behaving and wonder if this makes sense to anyone. The car is a 1998/9 C200 W202 20k miles - fan dial on left, direction on the right with Rest and EC button in the middle. Air-con re-gassed by Indy but problem existed before. I...

I've been trying to resolve the temperamental heating in my 300E. It doesn't always blow cold. Hot is no problem but when switching the dials to cold, warm is the best i can get. Sometimes it will stay on hot. I've had the duo valves apart and clean up all the parts (twice) and initially it...

Hi all! For the past day or two no matter how I set the environment controls in my E class, it seems to be freezing! Has anyone else encountered this or have any idea how I might resolve it? Thanks in advance!!

Hey Guys, The bulb on 1 of my heating controls have gone and while I'm changing that i plan on changing pretty much all of them to hyper white so i can get a nice illumious glow at night. Does anyone know which bulbs i require? I may have a shot at changing the interior bulbs on the ceiling, has...

Heating usually fine, but on long runs, if during the drive I open the window, then it sometimes results in sending freezing cold air into the footwell. If I mess about with the direction of the vents it sometimes works, but not always. Did some searches but I can't find anything on the site...

Hi Driving in today though the ice and fog (in Southampton!) I noticed the nearside wing mirror didn't follow the drivers side, and defrost It responds to electric movement (up, down etc) but not to defrost. Anybody able to steer me to the most likely cause and solution? Many thanks Fabes

Strange problem, the left electric mirror is not heating up and defrosting, could it be the wrong the mirror glass been put in or connection pulled apart?, does anyone know how to safely remove the glass?

I'm asking this question just out of interest, inspired by some other recent threads on this topic. I am a curious man :D. The following pdf (over 7MB chaps!) describes the climate control of my car very well: 507_Systems_1/507 HO HVAC 220 (ACB, IC) 10-30-02.pdf I'm in particular interested...

I often get a subtle blast of diesel fumes in the cabin of my car when I operate the air ventilation. Are there any filters that would need changing. Also I think the cabin temperature could be much warmer. Any suggestions would be appreciated. JB

Duo valve problems (Please excuse but this I posted in error initially to "Favourites" thread) Hi all, I have heating problems that I suspect it may be duo valve problems on my 1995 124 E300 diesel. This model does not have the air-conditioning. Contrary to most of the other threads that I...

Am I right in thinking that the rear window heater is permanently &/or automatically switched on?

I have a 1990 W126 560 SEC, and I need help in diagnosing a problem with the heating/ventilation/aircon controls. The car has the system with two rotary temperature controls, one for each side of the car, and rocker switches for the aircon and for "recirculation" (ie it does not have the...

I've tried searching on the forum but so far am just getting more confused..... I've got a 98 - S W208 CLK 320 with dial heater and all the heating and cooling work fine however there doesn't appear to be any heating or cooling going into the footwell ducts.. Please help... I'm afraid if i...

Good morning all, My newly bought 1997 sl320 is starting to show a rather worrying problem. When we try and get heat into the cabin it takes ages despite the car being run and up to temperature. Yesterday it took 2 hours for it to change from air con to 26 despite the digital display showing 26...
