A/C Cooling or NOT?
When running my A/C, it cools off, but not as nicely as my former W124. How do you know if that is the norm or it needs to be recharged. It was about 100 F. in my area yesterday, and the A/C was not responding as nicely as I would have liked it. I have had car since last December, and now was the only time I really needed COLD air, but I only got cool air
If it needs recharging to boost cooling, could you take it to any A/C shop?

What are your vent temps like? It should be able to cool as well as your 124.
Take it to the dealer for a full evac/recharge, most have a/c specials this time of year. While it may be
possible to top off the system yourself (if it is in fact just low), it's not really worth it due to the expense/risks involved.

i actually used high pressure water and did it to the radiator and cleaned it and loads of greyish water came out, the ac got better also car temp doesnt go as high as before, my own experience.
