I think any vehicle you drive has to compensate for the pull of the compressor. A 240D just has less "umfff" to pull from......


BTW, I don't think your title is very accurate. These are NOT "major" AC issues.....
Actually, a toggle switch for the aux fan ain't that bad a thing. It really should run anytime the AC is on, and it does help cool the car temp some. YOu just want to make sure that there is a fuse in the fan/switch circuit.
