1985 300SD - when idle no AC, when moving blows cold?
Moving the down the highway my daily 1985 300SD w/' 225k blows cold. However, when idling the blower is strong pushing only warm air. Need advice on what I need to look at / DYI replace parts / or schedule an appointment with MB mechanic.
Thanks

Preventive In Dash Repairs On 1986 560 SEC
1986 560 SEC coupe
Greetings:
I share Kent's pholosophy of prevention. I have removed the center console where the shifter is and the radio, climate console and ashtray to refinish the wood. While all that is out, what things do you recommend that I change out while I have easier access inside the dash? BTW I am in the process of replacing the climate control motor brushes and the gauge cluster lights as Kent suggested but was wondering if there were other items?
Thanks,
John Sebastian

W126 350SD 1991 thrown belt
I'm not exactly sure what happened with my car but I've heard it described as a thrown belt, anyway it broke and ripped my power steering pump off and tore off the belt tensioner pulley.
I'm in the process of putting things back together and noticed that I need a new AC compressor. Should I attempt to replace it myself if I have no prior experience with AC and don't want to buy a bunch of expensive tools?
Also, how do you get the high pressure hose off of the power steering pump where it connects to the pump reservoir?
