Im crossing my fingers that the monovalve is fine, i dont want to have to add another repair to the list!
Isn't there a auxillary water pump for circulating hot water to the heater core like a W116 has? I am pulling threads here but if it has one and it froze up you would have little heat on hiway and more at idle.
