Sorry cannot do that one, this will normally be the heater box filter blocked, and a new filter cold fix the problem. do clean the front drains.

Hi Malcolm, would you happen to have a diagram or something showing all the drains on the r230 (2008).

Malcolm I am desperate to figure out how to clean the aircon drain on my 2007 CL500. The car is a true delight except for the acrid smell when I put on the aircon. I have changed the cabin filters and cleared the front drains but the aircon drain eludes me. If you have any suggestions it would be most helpful.

You may have to wait a while as Malcolm is undergoing some pretty intensive medical treatment at the moment, has not been on here for a while and may be a while before he's well enough to post on the forum again. See the "Malcolm - get well soon" thread.

The SL the only way is to clip off the ears of the down plug under the nearside heater outlet pipe, the rear section has to be unscrewed, Its quite a simple job.

With all of the rain of late,if anyone wants the clearing all the drains info on a 140-107-123-124-126-201.

Please ask for the info.

Hi Malcolm,
Could you please send over your drain cleaning papers for a W124/S124 estate (I have an '89 200TE) - water dripping in the sunroof so need to clean them all out...
Many thanks, Jon

Usually a piece of wire would do to rod it out, something like a conductor stripped out of 1.5 T+E
