The redlight on the on/off button on my 2005 500sl is flashing on and off and the air from the vents is not ac cold. Is this likely to be a regas or something more sinister ?
I will get it properly checked by Olly shortly when I can get to him.

I havent had time to get my aircon looked at yet but one thing puzzles me.
It clearly isnt working properly as the air from the dash vents and footwells isnt cold.
The lower storage box between the seats however is like a fridge !
So its part working - is that usual or even possible ?

I think then the heater change over motor has failed, I did a write up on changing this in the DIY section, £35 but hard to get to on the SL
