W211 AC and blower issues
Good day everyone
I've recently purchased a 2003 E320 Avantgarde and have been having some issues with the air conditioning that I hope someone can shed some light on
Firstly, in very hot weather, it doesn't get cold enough to properly cool the interior.
sometimes it will blow noticeably colder here and there but not consistent.
if its not extremely hot out, the air conditioning gets plenty cold enough...
The next issue is that the blower output seems low at the vents and the controls to change air direction do not respond
Lastly, there is a nasty smell when the air con is running that snells like a sewer
this only happens now and then
So far, I've had the system recharged and ive replaced the cabin filter
Any advice would be appreciated
Regards
Ben

I was gonna say cabin filter but you did that already.
Use a good scanner to read AAC Module data.
