It's tan (haven't looked up the actual mercedes name for the color yet). Thanks for the help. I'm probably going to take it to an indie for this problem. It's too bad more of these weren't sold here. I need the a/c because it's going to be my daily driver. The 240D is just too nice to drive daily or in the rain/snow.
