I have just found out

My car (99' C280 sport) doesn't have air conditioning as such....it's an air conditioner, after talking to a mate tonight he said it's not air con as I know but a conditioner, is this right enough.


Btw....not that I am bothered as it's just all the more to go wrong.

Stu,
I don't really understand the question. If you have an "ec" button in the middle of the heater controls, you have aircon. I am pretty sure that all facelift C's (99 on if memory serves) had aircon as standard. They deleted the sunroof and put aircon in instead. Do you have an ec button in the middle of 3 buttons between the heater controls or the one rectangular recirc one?

Yea I do.....And I'm leaving it in the out position (a/c on) because yesterday while out I had it off (pressed in) thats when my windows were steaming up (see my post....doh....lol).


It was when I was the "interior" manual I have and the way it said "air conditioner" that threw me (and him), I said it was air conditioning but he said no.


I was right again...lol........


My mate like to think he's a kind of mr know it all......lol, I will put him when I see him....

I also have a C280-You DO have air condtioning fitted if you have the 'EC' button. the manual refers to it as an 'air conditioner'...theres no difference, so chill...pardon the pun!

so chill...pardon the pun!

Lol......it's just my mate who think's he know's everything, I was quite sure it was air con but he didn't as we were looking over the car when I went to see him last night.

It was as he was looking through the owner's manual he said "it's an air conditioner you have not air conditioning", I said dont talk rubbish I know what I have.......brrrrrrrr....
