Heater Blower

[Chas]

Just wondering if anyone knows the HEATER BLOWER part number for my S320 (2001) , the one under the passenger footwell. I had it out to lubricate it last year as it was squeaking and driving me round the twist ! I suspect the bearings are worn or something, as it's started to make annoying squeaky noises occasionally.
I seem to remember it wasn't an A220 ... .... number, and that it may fit other models, although the Ruski site shows it as an A220 ..........

thanks

I dont know the number but the reason it squeaks could be down to the NS drain hole blocked, letting water onto the motor area & into the car itself. This is a common problem.

Yes it was rusty when I took it out, the plenum chamber (nearside drain box) should have had the recall done ( extra drain in bottom) but it wasnt done and led me to complain to MB, who subsequently fixed it. Its also the same heater blower in the CL /CLS model I think, thats why its not an A220 part number.
I am trying to source one on E BAY and fit it myself as its only a 20 minute job

thanks
