Last spring my evaporator sprang a few leaks. It is in the middle of the dash. They had to take the whole front of the car apart to replace it. (I think it was the evaporator - something like that anyway.) It cost $1,800 US to do it, less than half of what Ole Heavy Karl the local Stealership would have charged. But now when I have driven for anywhere from an hour to two or three hours, the air gets warm coming out of the AC vents and I have to turn it to the no-compressor setting for a long while. Then eventualy I can get it to come back on. One excellent inhabitant of this ng suggested it is coil freeze-up. Is there any way to fix this? If not, I will have to sell it or give it away and try to find a new car to replace it. But that is bad cause the new S Klasse only has the humongous 550 cc gas eater available. And I fear the return of gas lines like the 70s in Ca. So I won't buy the new
5.5 L engine which means I will have to go to the Rexus LS430 Kudzu Kar. Suggestions to fix the AC problem? The professional wrenchs at Smilin Sams will fix it, of course, but the head guy didn't seem to have any ideas when I called him when it happened.mcbrue thankfullinadvancely under the bridge in the trailer down by the river
