View Full Version : 200tdi Aftermarket airconditioning worth saving?

I bought my 200Tdi with the Aftermarket airconditioning installed (this (https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRC-0cLRu1tWqwlgNM9aLC6m6SgpRoWKFEYAdxQau3UBM8Re3MG) style) which has never worked. I'm not particularly fussed about not having it as I've heard it's like getting coughed on by a hypothermic mouse, but does anyone think that it is worth having and that I should have it repaired, or should I just leave it be/remove it?

when it works, mine works well in a truck cab. Not sure about sedans/wagon.

Yeah, got the wagon myself, so not sure how effective it would be.

Looks the same as the one in my 300TDi.
It's OK, struggles a bit on days when the temperature is in the 40's. It's not like a modern luxo-barge airconditioning but I've found it to be good enough....

remembering to shut off the outside air feed makes a big difference. :cool:
