How long does it take for the fan to start blowing air in your car?
We just picked up at used 2000 ML320 and sometimes it can take up to 2 to 4 minutes for the fan to blow air... it acts like it is turned off, then all of a sudden it goes on. I drove several other ML's and I don't remember noticing this.
When you turn on your car, does the air instantly start blowing or does it take a while too?
Thanks

My 02 sometimes take a while to blow. If I get in and crank up the fan, nothing may happen for a few seconds. Then all of a sudden the fan comes on and it sounds like a jet engine! Always thought it was normal.

guys, remember the 02 saw the introduction of the "auto" air conditioning. Pre 02 I think i am right in saying was purely air conditioning, not "automatic" temp setting.
Not much help I know, but I thought I would add it.
