Hi, 1st post here. Great site.
We have recently (within 3 weeks) bought a 2nd hand A140 X-reg from MB Direct and the air con was not blowing cold so before we collected it they re-gassed it and all was fine for 2 days and then same thing again.
We took it in today and they informed us that the condenser has been perforated by a stone and this would require replacing. This is not covered by warranty.
However as this was a fault when we bought the car they will not charge us for any of the work. Rightly so.
I asked them if this is common as it seemed a little strange that this could happen. Their answer was 'it is more common than you would think'
My question here is: Does this happen a lot? Is this something that could have happened rather than just a faulty condenser?
Regards,
Jeff
