I really do not trust the auto system..
is there something pulling ambient air from the passenger area across some sensor in order to start it up ?

On the w123, that little vent in the center of the dash (The famous rotted foam tube is connected to) air is pulled across the air temp sensor by the cabin fan. IIRC, air is pulled by the w126, but it's intake is close to the rear view mirror.
