Chuck and petaling,

Thanks very much for sharing your experiences. Seeing your historys could prove very valuable to me someday. I cross my fingers every time I start up my 300E. I have nightmares about having a serious AC problem. I love the car so much, and would really hate to go through such a nightmare.

Chuck, you are a patient man.

Thanks to both of you,
