All good advice. I can tell you that when new (1983) this AC was the best I've ever experienced and that is part of why I kept the car (hot and humid Texas summers).
I now have (and I suspect you also) vacuum issues that are not permitting the AC doors to go the their proper positions. I'll be removing the dash soon and replacing/repairing all vacuum pods. If that doesn't get me back to like new AC performance, I'll be selling the car. Anyone interested in a 1 owner, 215k mile, 300D turbo? Above all, stick with R12 as the refrigerant.

My recommendation for the primary culprit pod is the defrost pod. If that one is leaking it'll affect the center pod by dumping the vacuum. It also has two diaphragms. |
