Hi,

Bought my 2002 E270 CDI on Tuesday, noticed no aircon so had it regassed today. The garage have checked the compressor and it is broken looks like the magnetic clutch has gone.

So looks like I will be returning the vehicle to get it fixed, anyone have any idea how much it would cost to replace the compressor?

Thanks

Chris.

Chris contact Parkham Garage Merc Indie in Wellingborough, 01933 442216 they MAY be able to sort out a clutch out rather than replace the whole compressor - IF it is the compressor. Many posts on this site re such problems and I am not really qualified to give you definitive advice but I do know that other things in the A/C control system can cause such faults. :sad:

Unless the seller will cover it all under the warranty!

Thanks - as I have had the car less thank a week I have legal recourse so I could give the car back and look for another one. I hope the garage will see reason and fix the problem.
