No Heat :(

Right smack in the freezing winter, my stupid heater isn't working and so is the defrost is extremely slow. Any ideas of how much it will cost to replace? Thanks.

could be the monovalves that are defective. There is a monovalve for the driver side and passenger side HVAC controls. This valve controls the amount of coolant I believe into the heater core.

We had this happen on a '82 300D. The monovalves are located on the passenger side engine compartment in front of the car computers...

Haha.

I brought it to a mechanic and he said it is the resistor to the blower. There is actually no wind coming out from the vents. My mechanic called Mercedes, but they gave him the wrong part and now I have to wait until the right part comes in.

Mechanic just called and said Mercedes doesn't sell the resistor or harness to the blower seperately. I have to buy the entire blower. Does anybody know if that is true and any place that I can go to get the resistor? Thanks.
