What should I do about my A/C?
The air conditioning in my '85 300D does not blow very cold. For example, last summer it wasn't blowing cold at all. I put a can of R-12 in it and it blew a little cooler but still not cold. It was about 100 degrees outside and the a/c would only blow out at 80 degrees. If the car was already hot inside, it would never cool down.
I really hate to take my car to a mechanic out of fear that it will cost a lot of money to fix. I have thought about purchasing a compressor and evaporator on my own and replacing these two items by myself and then taking it to a mechanic to finish the rest. By replacing these two items myself, I presumably save a lot of money. However, I really don't know what is wrong with the a/c so these parts might not need replacing at all. Thoughts?? Comments?? Thanks, Scott
