Mercedes C200 - 2013 - W204
![Exclamation](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/icons/icon4.gif)
Ive just recently purchased a used 2013 Mercedes C200, however the A/C does not work until the car has reached operating temp/thermostat open. I have tried resetting the climate control system however I dont think im doing it right. Any ideas?
as its summer here & is getting to 40°C

If you don't have the diagnostics, at least visit an AC shop and have them attach a set of gages which will generally indicate the amount of refrigerant in the system to allow for cooling!!

Can't you take it to a dealer? Unless there are a lot of miles on it should still be under warranty. They may even give you a loaner while they sort it out.

Thanks for the help
Cars booked in at my local Mercedes this Wednesday. Car has 10,000miles with 2months new car warranty remaining, just needed some ideas so I can indicate what's wrong as Mercedes Benz in Australia are pretty useless at 'finding' faults... Apparently I'll wait and see.

More News!
They are telling me it's normal for the A/C clutch to engage 10 to 15 after the car had started & when the car is at operating temp. Been 3times I've taken it back, however I've tested other cars at the dealer & this was not the case. So they're looking into again, especially when I told them I want it in writing so I can go to Mercedes Benz Australia to confirm! Haha
