MagicPod Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 The vehicle in question is a 2011 W204 diesel with 50,000 kilometres on it.The air conditioning unit was functioning well, then abruptly it started flashing three times when pressing the button, without any further response. What is the first point of reference? Has anybody encountered the same issue? Thank you for any guidance or advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericaMonster Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Based on my inference, it seems that it requires recharging with petrol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captiva Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 As said before, it is advisable to consistently utilise the air conditioning system during both the summer and winter seasons. Utilise it or forfeit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markwe Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 My 2012 204 model has been functioning well and has never had any maintenance. Is this considered uncommon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captiva Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Indeed, I have had a similar issue with my 2005 CLK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finestey Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Similarly to my prior automobiles, my latest car was driven consistently for almost 5 years without any need for regassing or other maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
depofly Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 your air conditioning system is experiencing low refrigerant levels and need a recharge. The reason for its low fuel level is a separate issue, however you would need an expert to provide an explanation. If there is a hole, it is quite probable that a new condenser will be required. Alternatively, if the system has been seldom used, it is possible that the refrigerant has gradually seeped out, resulting in low gas levels.

Micobe Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 My mobile air conditioning technician does a comprehensive service on my unit every two years, without my turning it off, at the cost of £50.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
