Angry 94 E320 climate control

I love everything about this car except the climate control system. How could these engineers make such a user un-friendly, and un-responsive system? On cold, rainy days the interior fogs up badly and even with defrost on ,(way too loud), it is hard to remove. Hard to find a comfortable consistant temp range. Any way to improve this ? Is there a filter to change?

You have somethings wrong with your system. After all, you are at 204,000 miles and now 12 years old. These systems typically don't last that long without repairs. Could be any number of things from defective vacuum actuators under the dash and two of them requiring removal of the dash.
Or it could be pushbutton unit, or low refrigerant, or A/C compressor etc. etc.
Sounds like your A/C is not working.

Take it to a independent MB shop for diagnosis.

Enjoy the car, but be aware that these cars must be maintained.

It does sound like you have an actuator not opening but it is FRUSTRATING that you cant control the fan speed on defrost and can only manually set it at low or high on any other setting. Poor design.
