92 190E 2.6, had perfectly fine A/C but this summer it wasnt blowing as cold so I took it to the dealer to check for the freon level.
They came back and said it was low so charged me 200 and filled it up again. Since then, the A/C would work intermittently, where the compressor would engage and stop itself during hot day time.
Took it back and they said the tech. had overcharged the system and it should work fine now.
Drove out of the dealership and same problem. Now it's back at the dealer and they called today to tell me that due to the high miles 160K on the car they have to replace the compressor and O-rings etc to "hopefully" cure this problem. They said it would cost $1600 !
I'm mad. the problem was never there before I had them charge up the system. The compressor was always working it's just that the air wasn't 'as cold'. now the compressor just shuts off and all the vents throw is regular air about 85% of the time. Especially when the weather is hot.
Any suggestions ?
thnx.
P.S. Can the A/C components from an 86 190E 2.3 be used to replace the faulty A/C components on the 92 190E2.6 ?
