I am an infrequent poster here, so I will say hello.
I have a s124 E300 diesel T (124.191).
The car has factory fit air conditioning.
The heater on the driver's side defaults to hot and only very slowly goes to cool and only then if I set it to maximum cold. The passenger side seems fine.
I suspect the duo valve is kaput, as does my mechanic.
According to the EPC, my diesel requires the valve with part number A0018303884.
Most valves for sale on Ebay are part number A0018303784. Many sellers (and the German SPOB site) indicate that this latter valve is not suitable for the E300 diesel.
Is this correct? Or can I use the A0018303784 duo valve without any problems? There is a huge difference in price.
Thanks in advance for your help.
