Center vents barely blowing

Can anyone PLEASE help me? I recently got the A/C working on my 1983 300D, but the air barely blows out of the two center vents. The air will blow strongly out of the far right and left side vents, but not the center ones. If anyone can provide me with possible reasons and/or solutions to this problem, I'd be GREATLY appreciative.

If you'd like to email me directly, my email address is maptgpkrp@msn.com

Thank you VERY MUCH!!

water behind passenger seat, window?

I have after a rain a large amount of water behind the passenger seat. There is a large rusted out area by the right side front jack point. Also the front passenger window sticks when going down and comes off the track. Are these all related? Do you think the water is coming in from the jack point, door, or some where else? None of the seals have been replaced and the car has 202,000.
Thank you.

1984 300sd ball joints replacement

Hi, I just bought a 1984 300sd w126 and the mechanics told me I have to replace the front ball joints... Since I have repaired the sunroof of my car thanks to mercedessource, I was wondering if I can replace myself the front ball joints. In this case, which kit do I need from mercedessource? I found a front arm bushing replacement kit and manual but I don't know if it s what I need... At low speed, I get some clunking especially when I drive over bumps... Thanks Erwan

420SEL - runs bad and at a loss

Okay, here's my trouble...I bought an old 1988 420 sel as a restoration project and spent over a year patching up and polishing the job. After a new suspension, new rims and tires, transmission repair, paint job, tune-up, and custom parts installation, I thought I was doing pretty good. In fact, the car looked sharp and I was well-pleased with the results. However, last year I drove to Myrtle Beach (from central Kentucky) and back.
