ac not cold
i have a 1991 190e 2.6 ac starts out cool then turns warm. I think it might be the mono valve,I have gone threw the parts catalog but do not see a listing. If the car has one where is it and how do i get the rebuild kit. :confused:

A quick way to check for water flow is to feel both heater hoses while the engine is hot and running. If the inlet and outlet are hot you have water flow. ( some systems use one in and two out so be sure to check all hoses. )
Do you have access to AC pressure gauges? If while the AC is on the low side goes to zero and the high side goes very high , the expansion valve is sticking. |

Monovalve is under the leaf cage on the passenger side right behind the fire wall. Unless you live somewhere where the temperature drops to the negatives, I would remove the aux water pump and put in a manual ball valve in its place. I close the valve during summer to stop coolant flow and I open it in the winter.

W201 has no monovalve like the W126.
W201's heater function is done by a vacuum controlled valve. Photo of valve here, next to blower box thing. Mercedes-Benz Forum - View Single Post - 190E 2.6 Heat coming from both vents in the cabin Check to make sure the HVAC system is getting vacuum. I recall accidentally disconnecting mine near the brake booster and getting heat. Could be vacuum leak too. |
A/C gauges
