1999 e 320 AC problem

When the temp outside gets above about 85 the AC in my E-320 stops working. I was wondering if there was any insite to the problem.

do a search

do a search for ac diagnostic, then perform the incar diagnostic write down your codes and figure out what the sensors are reading and how much freon your car has in it. And remember these cars have a sealed AC system so if the freon is low their IS a leak however slow it might be. Good luck, last year it was the AC in my 2000 E55, and this year it was my AC in my 1997 C280.

these cars have a sophisticated climate control system that is capable of doing some self diagnostics.
