R129 2001 SL500 A/C Problem--Please help a newbie
I have a 2001 SL500---only has 19000 miles and the A/C is acting up---dealer said no code fault---A/c will not engage when button pushed, but if I leave the button pushed and the meters showing on high (4-5 bars) the A/C will come on eventually and run a few seconds and then go off again and continue to come on and off randomly but in short burst ---- it is very cold when it comes on, so it is charged, the heat does the same thing

The fix is to get the dealer to do their job. The AC could be cutting off for a number of reasons that would not throw a code, like a bad temp or pressure sensor.
Have they put a set of gauges on the system, or watched what's going on with the real-time data monitoring of the diagnostic system?
