I was in the E300D this afternoon in the first of the summer traffic jams and it was around 28C.
All was working fine with the A/C then after a while, the compressor cut out though the ventilation fan was still operating, no problem.
The engine temperature was up around an indicated 105C - is there a cut-out in the A/C circuit to effectively reduce the load on the cooling system when load is high??
Got back in the car again after 3 hours, all fully operational again...
Any thoughts?
Thanks
