[diesel_mercedes] Klima I HVAC

 



I hear you mark ;

I'm sure you take proper care of the cooling system as that seems to be the pinch point in Klima I systems .

Once I got mine working in my old '79 Coupe , it was terrific , much better than the Klima II on my later cars , nevertheless , getting it sorted out was too much for me so I sold it shortly thereafter .

Well, my Klima I/Chrysler AutoTemp II has been working flawlessly for the past 6-years.  Once sorted out, and with the much improved aluminum-bodied servo, it's at least as reliable as it's successor.  In fact, the climate control system on my car has been the least of my problems.  I wish the rest of the car was so easily fixed once and for good....

Only thing left on my system is to replace that little auxiliary water pump.  It's been out since I've owned the car.  Maybe someday....

My previous MB diesel, a 1977 300D, also had a trouble-free Klima I.  It even still had it's original charge of R-12!

Well Lawrence ;

It sure beats the heck out if the wretched Klima I system with its EVIL SERVO FROM HELL .

I'll figure this out , just give me some time , then I'll share what I learn .

Rob's suggestion of trying Autohaus AZ was dead on ~ they only want $15 for the specific part that goes bad : http://www.autohausaz.com/search/product.aspx?sid=2mrnah45sxaxmx45m5ev4sym&makeid=800016@Mercedes&modelid=1193576@300CDT&year=1984&cid=hvac@hvac&gid=12607@HVAC%20Mono%20Valve%20Repair%20Kit
